Questions the impact of the closure of Les Chênes on young offenders who might otherwise have been placed at the School. Notes previous correspondence dated 7 September 2001, mentioning assaurances for young people such as Witness 627 who can be prevented from serious re-offending only by their placement in a custodial environment.
