HC Deb 01 December 1949 vol 470 c106W
20. Mr. Amory

asked the Minister of Education why, for the purposes of the Teachers (Superannuation) Acts, he disregards service overseas as an Army teacher for the purpose of computing the superannuation allowance due to a retired Army schoolmaster.

Mr. Tomlinson

The categories of contributory service laid down in the Teachers Superannuation Acts are limited to service in England and Wales, but under the Teachers Superannuation (Army Education) Scheme, a draft of which was laid before the House on 11th of last month, it will be possible for certain overseas teaching service in the Army by persons who are not subject to the Army pension arrangements to be treated as contributory service under the Teachers-Superannuation Acts.
