HC Deb 18 November 1959 vol 613 c144W
Mr. Malcolm MacPherson

asked the Minister of Education, with reference to the grants he offers towards the cost of travel in order to encourage more teachers from the United Kingdom to exchange posts for a year with teachers in other Commonwealth countries, what are the Commonwealth countries in respect of which such grants are payable.

Sir D. Eccles

Australia, New Zealand, South Africa and the Federation of Rhodesia and Nyasaland. Teachers going to Canada for an approved year of interchange receive a grant to help them to meet the high cost of living in that country.
