Thomas Derrig Minister for Education (Mr. Derrig) Fianna Fáil

I do not propose to provide psychiatric treatment at the institution mentioned. Boys are detained there only for very short periods, the average being from a week to ten days, and the maximum a month, and I am advised that effective psychiatric treatment would require a much longer period.
