§ 20. Mr. Scott-Hopkinsasked the Minister of Education how many educational psychologists are employed in the county of Cornwall; and what are their rates of pay.
§ Sir D. EcclesThree. One is paid on a scale rising from £1,810 to £2,170 and the two others—one of whom takes up his duties next month—on a scale rising from £1,510 to £1,810.
§ Mr. Scott-HopkinsIs my right hon. Friend satisfied that these scales of pay are adequate considering the urgent need to recruit more educational psychologists not only in Cornwall but throughout the country?
§ Sir D. EcclesI am glad to say that the lower scale has now attracted a psychologist to fill the third place, and I hope that that will help the county.
