§ MR. WEIRI beg to ask the Lord Advocate whether arrangements can be made by which female teachers under the Scotch Education Department, who retire from the service on marriage, may receive a gratuity, in accordance with the practice in the General Post Office.
§ * MR. A. G. MURRAYThe Superannuation Act does not contemplate any such gratuity as is referred to, nor is the Government prepared to admit that the position of teachers is analogous to that of employees in the General Post Office.
