Table I 8.—Deaths, 1920.

Table I 9. —Inmates discharged from Industrial Schools during 1920.

Under the provisions of tha Industrial Schools Act, 1909, power is given for the detention beyond the age of twenty-ono years of any inmate who, upon application being made to a Magistrate by the Manager of the school at the direction of the Minister of Education, is found to be morally degenerate or otherwise not (in the public interest) a fit person to be free from control. In the nine years since this Act came into operation there have been eighty-five orders issued extending the period of control, sixty of the inmates concerned being girls. The Act provides for extension for four years, and gives power to the Court on similar procedure to renew the order from time to time for a period of four years. It is expected that the number of those over whom authority beyond twenty-one years will be needed will always be small in proportion to the whole number of inmates ; but the value of such an enactment in respect of the remainder who have to be detained is obvious, both in their own interest and in that of the community at large.
