HC Deb 29 June 1897 vol 50 c740
MR. DALY

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, whether he has received resolutions from the National School Teachers' Association, Ballyboy, demanding payment direct to them of the residual school grant admitted to be due by the Treasury, and protesting against any portion of these arrears (due to the teachers) being allocated to the pension fund; and also protesting against the action of the Government to further attempt to reduce their salaries by increased stoppages to the pension fund; and, whether, as the teachers have performed their part in contributing to the pension fund, the Treasury will make good any further deficiencies caused by the miscalculations of the actuaries of the Government?

MR. GERALD BALFOUR

The resolutions referred to have been received. I have nothing to add to my reply to the question addressed to me on the 21st inst. by the hon. Member for Mid Cork on this subject.
