HC Deb 29 March 1973 vol 853 cc384-5W
37. Mr. Fry

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services if he is satisfied with the present facilities available for young persons under the age of 16 years on remand; and if not what action he proposes to take.

Mr. Alison

No, Sir. Local authorities' regional plans for community homes provide for further development. In approving these plans, my right hon. Friend has told local authorities that he will do all he can, within the limits of competing priorities, to facilitate their implementation.
