HC Deb 27 October 1919 vol 120 c311W
Major HURST

asked the President of the Board of Education whether, in view of the high cost of living and having regard to the provision lately made for Scottish retired teachers, he will consider the expediency of enabling English teachers who retired before April, 1019, to participate in the bowls granted to retiring teachers?

Mr. FISHER

I would remind the hon. and gallant Member that the systems of superannuation for teachers in England and Scotland are different and independent. I do not see my way to initiate legislation in the direction suggested.
