(iii) The Department should consider what type of officer is best suited to help with problem pupils in post-primary schools.

_(f) Research into Juvenile Delinquency_
A long-term project for the investigation of juvenile delinquency in all aspects should be undertaken.
=(3) Parental Example=
New laws, new regulations, and the prospect of stricter administration may help to allay the well-founded fears of many parents for the future of their children. It would, however, be a pity if parents were thereby led into any relaxation of their own efforts. Wise parenthood implies firm control and continual interest in the doings of sons and daughters.
But what is most needed is that all people should, by right living and by the regularity of their own conduct, afford the best example for the conduct of the rising generation.
_XIX. Appreciation_
As a supplement to this report the Committee desires to place on record its thanks to all those who have a.s.sisted it in discharging its responsibilities.
The many organizations and witnesses who have expressed their views have been most helpful, and the Committee is also obliged to all those who have sent letters, books, and papers for consideration. The many press clippings of editorials, news articles, and letters to editors have enabled the Committee to obtain an understanding of public sentiment on various matters.
The heads of Government Departments have answered every inquiry for information which has been submitted to them.
The Public Service Commission has placed facilities at the disposal of the Committee and has released stenographers and typists from their ordinary duties to enable this report to be presented on the date fixed by the Committee early in its deliberations.
In particular, the Committee expresses its great appreciation of the manner in which Mr L.J. Greenberg has performed the secretarial duties.
He has dealt with correspondence, and has shown a splendid sense of timing in arranging for the appearance of witnesses.
