§ Mr. J. GOULDasked the President of the Board of Education whether he is aware that a certain local authority has passed resolutions precluding teachers 149W who do not belong to the National Union of Teachers from obtaining appointments in areas under their control; that such a course of action militates against the livelihood of a large number of certificated teachers obtaining employment; whether it is the policy of his Department to give preference to any one specific union or association where several exist in one profession; and whether, having special regard to the 150W action of the Rhondda Educational Authority, he will take steps to avoid undue preference being given to any one of the several teachers' organisations in the disbursement of public funds?
§ Mr. TREVELYANI may refer the hon. Member to the reply given on the 1st May last to the hon. Member for Windsor (Mr. A. Somerville), a copy of which I am sending him.
