asked the Secretary of State for Scotland, pursuant to his reply to the hon. Member for Glasgow, Maryhill on 8 February, if he will publish the report of the survey of provision for profoundly mentally handicapped children and place a copy in the Library.

This report will be sent to education, health and social work authorities within the next few weeks and will be available also on request to other interested parties. I shall be happy to place copies in the Library and to send one to the hon. Member.
