HC Deb 21 February 1924 vol 169 cc1993-4W
Mr. G. WHITE

asked the President of the Board of Education if he will arrange that service by qualified teachers in juvenile unemployment centres shall rank as service for the purpose of the Teachers' Superannuation Act?

Mr. TREVELYAN

I regret that it would not be possible for me without amending legislation to treat service in juvenile unemployment centres as re- cognised service under the School Teachers (Superannuation) Act, 1918.

Mr. E. WOOD

asked the President of the Board of Education what action the Government proposes to take with regard to the recent Report of Lord Emmott's Committee on Teachers' Superannuation?

Mr. G. WHITE

asked the President of the Board of Education if it is the intention of the Government to introduce legislation during the present Session to give effect to the recommendations of the Committee on Superannuation of School Teachers?

Mr. TREVELYAN

The matter is receiving active consideration, but I am not yet in a position to make a statement on the subject.
