§ 104. Mr. J. TAYLORasked the Secretary for Scotland whether the Scottish Education Department had refused to sanction schemes of salaries submitted to them by the new education authorities; and whether the salaries so submitted exceeded the minimum authorised by the Department?
§ Colonel GIBBSThe Department have not refused sanction to any scheme of salaries yet submitted. In a few cases schemes have been returned for fuller information. Several of the schemes submitted provide salaries in excess of the minimum national scales.
§ Mr. TAYLORWas the minimum supposed to be the maximum, or was no educational authority to exceed the minimum?
§ Colonel GIBBSI will inform my right hon. Friend of that question.
