HC Deb 15 February 1995 vol 254 cc651-2W
Mr. Redmond

To ask the Secretary of State for Health if she will list for each local authority the percentage annual decrease or increase of children placed on protection registers in England for the latest available year; and what were the figures for (a) five years and (b) 10 years ago.

Mr. Bowis

Information for the year ending 31 March 1994 will be placed in the Library. The earliest reliable annual comparisons available centrally for each local authority are for the year ending 31 March 1990.
