§ Mr. Alexander W. Lyonasked the Secretary of State for Education and Science how many mentally or physically handicapped children in York have applied to the North Yorkshire county council for special provision in education; and how many places have been provided by the council.
§ Dr. BoysonThis information is not available in the Department, as returns of the number of handicapped pupils and their placement are not collected for areas smaller than those of whole local education authorities. The hon. Member may wish to contact the North Yorkshire local education authority, which may have this information.
