HC Deb 08 June 1920 vol 130 c256W
Major MORGAN

asked the President of the Board of Education if he is aware that the Rhondda Urban District Council education authority has recently passed a resolution which will terminate the engagement of service and provides for the dismissal of each and all of their married female teachers as soon as they become eligible for the minimum pension payable; and, if this be so, will he use his influence and endeavour to mitigate the injustice and inequalities that must obtain as between teacher and teacher if this resolution is carried into effect?

Mr. FISHER

I understand that such a resolution has been passed. I have no general authority to interfere with the action of the local education authority in the matter
