HC Deb 12 June 1947 vol 438 c139W
80. Mr. Skinnard

asked the Minister of Education in what areas of Middlesex the special responsibility allowances awarded to teachers for the years 1945–46 and 1946–47 have not yet been paid; and if he will take action to ensure a uniform method of payment throughout the county.

Mr. Tomlinson

I do not know what payments have been made by this local education authority in accordance with the general schemes for the distribution of special posts carrying allowances which have been agreed for 1945–46. The proposed arrangements for teachers in primary and secondary schools for the year 1946–47 have not yet been submitted by the authority. The allocation of special posts to teachers in schools in any district within the authority's area and the method of making the payments to the teachers are matters primarily for the local education authority concerned.
