§ Mr. Tilleyasked the Prime Minister if Her Majesty's Government will ensure the implementation of the report by ACAS which deals with the pay of those employees of the agricultural training boards whose salaries are reduced by reason of their transfer to Civil Service pay scales in 1979.
§ The Prime Minister:No. After studying the ACAS recommendations the Government decided that no changes were needed in the arrangements for linking the salaries of the staff of the agricultural training board with those in the Civil Service. None of the staff concerned suffered a reduction in pay.
