§ Mr. Leeasked the Secretary of State for Social Services whether his Department has recently undertaken an analysis of statistics relating to juvenile offending.
§ Mr. Geoffrey FinsbergYes, such an analysis has recently been completed. My right hon. Friend has decided that it would be in the public interest for the document to be made generally available, and it has been published under the title "Offending by Young People—A Survey of Recent Trends". Copies have been placed in the Libraries of both Houses.
