HC Deb 21 June 1988 vol 135 c1064
Mr. Malcolm Bruce

I beg to move amendment. No. 5, in page 11, line 40 after 'section', insert '45 and'.

The purpose of the amendment is to establish whether the Minister is prepared to agree to a loss of earnings allowance for members of school boards. I hope that he will recognise our concern that attendance at school boards will be a fairly demanding job which could cause people to lose earnings, especially if they are shift workers. An allowance for loss of earnings is already available to people who participate in children's panels—

It being Ten o'clock, further consideration of the Bill stood adjourned.
