§ 19. Dame Joan Vickersasked the Under-Secretary of State for the Colonies whether consideration is being given to the provision of equal pay for men and women teachers in Government service in Hong Kong.
§ Mrs. WhiteYes, Sir.
§ Dame Joan VickersMay I thank the hon. Lady for her reply and point out that this was a very interesting case, because it was the men who demanded that the women should get equal pay as they thought the women were undercutting them in getting the jobs they should have had.
