46. Mr. Day

asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Board of Education the number of supplementary teachers who have been admitted to the benefits of the Teachers (Superannuation) Act on their retirement for the 12 months ended to the last convenient date?

Mr. Lindsay

Supplementary teachers are not admissible to the benefits of the Teachers (Superannuation) Acts.

Mr. Day

Will the Minister consider introducing legislation to give them the benefit of pensions on retirement?

Mr. Lindsay

So far as they are employed by local authorities it will be an obligation in 1939 under the Act of 1937.
