§ 25. Mr. TREVELYANasked the President of the Board of Education how many local education authorities have already accepted the new Burnham award on salary scales; whether any, and, if so, what, authorities have definitely refused to accept it; and how many have as yet made no decision?
§ Lord E. PERCYSome authorities have not yet had time to arrive at a formal decision on the matter, but the information in my possession suggests that the award is meeting with very general acceptance on the part of authorities, and I know of no case where it has been decided to reject it.
