HC Deb 23 April 1931 vol 251 c1136
27. Captain WALLACE

asked the President of the Board of Education whether the National Union of Women Teachers will be represented on the Standing Joint Committee on teachers' salaries?

Mr. LEES-SMITH

I understand that the Standing Joint Committee on the salaries of teachers in public elementary schools will have before them, at their meeting to-morrow, an application from the National Union of Women Teachers for representation on the committee.

Mr. MACLEAN

If there is any other body representing a substantial number of school teachers, will the right hon. Gentleman be prepared to consider an application for representation?

Mr. LEES-SMITH

I presume that they themselves would apply to the Standing Joint Committee.

Mr. CAMPBELL

Is their application likely to be accepted?

Mr. LEES-SMITH

The committee meets to-morrow.
