asked the Home Secretary whether, in the case of Leo Burke, a boy of 16, who was recently committed to Borstal for three years by the London Sessions for stealing handbags from churches, a mental specialist was asked to examine the boy before conviction; and whether, in view of the fact that the boy has already been in a lunatic asylum, has had five previous convictions, has served two terms in a reformatory, and is stated to have a passion for this form of theft, he will order an inquiry for the purpose of ascertaining whether he is a fitting subject for treatment in a mental institution?
