§ MR. SLOAN (Belfast, S.)To ask the Secretary to the Treasury if he will take into consideration, at the earliest opportunity, the advisability of placing the Irish National Teachers' Pension Fund on a basis that will ensure similar treatment to that given to disabled teachers in England and Scotland.
(Answered by Mr. Victor Cavendish.) I cannot undertake to propose any change in the arrangements with regard to the Pension Fund until we have before us the result of the quinquennial valuation which must be held at the end of the present year.
