The Care of the Feeble-Minded: Alderman Sir George Kenrick presented a recommendation that, subject to the approval of the Board of Education, the Birmingham Board of Guardians be asked to provide, at Monyhull, residential school accommodation for 50 epileptics and 180 mentally defective children to be sent there by the Education Committee. Mrs. Pinsent seconded the proposal and said the scheme would unify the provision made by the Guardians and the Education Committee; it would therefore be more efficacious and, at the same time much more economical.
