HC Deb 24 February 1938 vol 332 c560W
Mr. R. Gibson

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland with regard to the resignations of women teachers from 1932 to 1936 numbering 397, 349, 310, 277, and 279, respectively, and being for reasons other than reaching age limit, resignations owing to ill-health, or on account of marriage and withdrawing superannuation contributions, what were these other reasons and how many resignations were attributable to each?

Mr. Elliot

Of the numbers of resignations stated, 70, 48, 39, 37 and 36, respectively, were due to transfers to teaching service in England. I regret that information regarding the remaining resignations is not available in the Department.
