HC Deb 07 August 1919 vol 119 c585W
Lieut.-Colonel HERBERT

asked the President of the Board of Education why English certificated teachers who retired before this year receive smaller pensions than Scottish teachers retiring under the same conditions; and whether he will consider the advisability of removing this difference?

Mr. FISHER

The pensions systems for the Scotch teachers has been and still is different from that for the English teachers I do not see my way to undertake legislation in the direction suggested.
