HC Deb 10 November 1921 vol 148 cc680-1W
Major GRAY

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether he is aware of the conditions of service under which the primary school teachers in Grenada are working and of the teachers' entire dissatisfaction, especially with their inadequate remuneration; and whether he can see his way to have the matter investigated?

Mr. WOOD

Representations on this subject have been made to the Secretary of State through the National Union of Teachers; but the proper course for the Grenada Union of Teachers is to make such representations to the Governor. Should the local Union adopt this course and ask that I should receive a deputation when I visit Grenada, I should be prepared to do so if my other engagements permit.
