	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 13/10/2014 answer text <p>The Department for Education collects data on the reasons for which children have been placed in secure children’s homes. There are three categories: those that have been detained or sentenced by the criminal courts; those placed in a criminal justice context and those placed on ‘welfare grounds’ under the Children Act 1989 (the Act). On 31 March 2014 there were 104 children placed in Secure Children’s Homes across England and Wales on welfare grounds. Within this latter category, we do not hold data that allows us to determine whether each child has been convicted of a crime.</p><p>Restricting the liberty of a child outside of the criminal justice context is a serious step. Section 25 of the Act sets out the criteria which must be considered before placing a young person in secure accommodation.</p> answering member constituency Crewe and Nantwich answering member printed Mr Edward Timpson question first answered 13/10/2014 16:16:21 answering member 1605 label Biography information for Edward Timpson
