HC Deb 22 November 1917 vol 99 cc1398-9W
Mr. SHEEHY

asked whether all teachers promoted to Grades I. and II. (1) up to April, 1909, were immediately paid the increased salaries consequent on promotion, and also all teachers promoted since April, 1913; whether the rearrangement of standard numbers effected in 1913 was made retrospective to include men teachers promoted from April, 1909, to April, 1913, and who were deprived of any immediate increase consequent on promotion and also good service for increment; and, if no relief has been granted to those teachers, on what grounds it is proposed to defend such treatment in the case of those teachers?

Mr. DUKE

The facts are generally as stated in the question. I would refer the hon. Member to the answer I gave to a question by the hon. Member for South Kerry on the 12th November.
