§ Mr. Steenasked the Secretary of State for Education and Science if he will publish in the Official Report a list of the 318W Metropolitan Borough; and how many local authority housing starts have been approved in each of the last 12 months.
§ Mr. KaufmanFigures for the 12 months since local government reorganisation will not be available until next month. In the first three quarters the following numbers were recorded:
local education authorities which are setting up, or have already set up, special units dealing with children with behavioural difficulties, indicating the different type of special unit in each case and an estimate of the annual running costs of each unit.
§ Mr. ArmstrongNo: statistical information in the form requested is not available. Her Majesty's inspectors are taking a close interest in local education authority provision for children with behavioural difficulties, much of which is still in an experimental stage.
