HC Deb 22 March 1978 vol 946 c577W
Mrs. Wise

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department what is his estimate of the average probation service cost per client under 19 years of age at the latest available date.

Mr. John

I regret that I am unable to offer such an estimate. People under 19 are dealt with by the probation service by various forms of supervision, at varying annual costs.
