§ 49. Mr. Hannanasked the Secretary of State for Scotland how many teachers have now registered with the General Teaching Council.
§ Mr. MillanI understand that 41,688 applications have been received by the General Teaching Council and that registration has been completed in respect of 32,108.
§ Mr. HannanMay I congratulate my hon. Friend on resisting the representations of minority teachers' organisations? Can he say how many teachers are not yet registered with the council?
§ Mr. MillanI am not able to give an exact figure, but I think the number will be very small indeed.
