§ Mr. Dudley Smithasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he will make a statement about university clinical salaries.
§ Mr. Boyd-CarpenterOn the 24th January, in replying to a Question by my hon. Friend the Member for Selly Oak (Mr. Gurden) about increases in the salaries of academic non-medical and pre-clinical staff, I said that the salary scales of academic clinical staff would also be revised from the 1st April, 1963, by amounts to be determined after account had been taken of any adjustments that 103W might be made in the salaries of National Health Service doctors and dentists following the recommendations of the Review Body under the Chairmanship of Lord Kindersley. After discussions with the Vice-Chancellors' Committee and with representatives of the Association of University Teachers, the University Grants Committee has now made the following recommendations which the Government have accepted.
