Mr. Chris Patten

The table shows teachers' salaries at the points requested (i) at 1 April 1985, following the implementation of the agreement initially reached at ACAS on 24 January, (ii) at 1 April 1986 as they will be after the agreement reached in the Burnham committee on 9 May has been implemented and (iii) actually received as at 30 January 1986, ie the rates which came into force from 1 April 1984. There is no difference in teachers' salaries between 1 April 1985 and 1 November 1985; and the agreement reached on 9 May does not provide for any difference in salaries between 1 April 1986 and 1 November 1986.
