HC Deb 30 July 1947 vol 441 cc61-2W
Sir E. Graham-Little

asked the Minister of Education whether he is aware that the Middlesex educational authority is tailing, as an example furnished him demonstrates, to make payments to teachers for responsibility additions to their salaries as authorised by the Burnham Scale; and it he will take measures to remedy this position.

Mr. Tomlinson

It is expected that the majority of the outstanding responsibility allowances for the years 1945–46 and 1946–47 will be paid not later than the beginning of the next school term. There may be a slight further delay in the payment of certain allowances in excess of the normal rates in respect of 1946–47, but the general scheme for these payments has been approved by my Department.
