Story from Uniform Girls 12 From: Permanent Deputy Under Secretary, YSS Div. Home Office To: Miss J Carver, Assistant Chief Executive, YSS Div. Home Office Date: 24th March 1997 Thank you for your reply to my memo of 20.3.97, regarding punishment in Girls’ Remedial Training Centres. I note that you are not against an increase of the maximum number of strokes from 18 to 24, provided this is administered in two lots of 12 strokes with a forty eight hour interval in between. This seems sensible to me. As regards punishments in RTC’s. I am glad you think these should be regularised and not left to the Commandant’s discretion. I will arrange a meeting of all Executive Officers to discuss this matter, when I will be in the Chair. Prior to that, I intend to visit a small number of RTC’s in order to see, at first hand, the present levels of discipline. Kindly arrange transport for me on 26th March. I wish to leave at 10 a.m.,

Not that she was surprised because Penny, at 17, was a very attractive girl in addition to being in the top stream at school. A pretty girl with long honey-blonde hair, quite tall and with a lovely figure. And Mr Rambold would have been in no doubt about an
