HC Deb 29 April 1981 vol 3 cc409-10W
Mr. Alfred Morris

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services what consideration he has given to the annual report of the Children's Committee for 1979–80; what action he has taken or will be taking; and if he will make a statement.

Sir George Young

This report is mainly a retrospective review of the committee's activities in 1979–80 and an indication of issues which it might pursue in the 12 months which began last July. As the report makes clear, the committee offers advice to my right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for Wales and my right hon. Friend at any time through the year when it wishes to do so.
