§ Mr. Longdenasked the Minister of Education what is the new committee structure of the National Advisory Council on the Training and Supply of Teachers; when the Supply Working Party last reported to him; and if he will make a statement.
§ Sir E. BoyleThere is a single Main Committee consisting of rather over half the membership and embracing the same wide range of representation. This Committee is to meet frequently and is empowered to submit reports or recommendations directly to me, except on matters of the first importance on which it will report to a meeting of the full Council. The Main Committee has established a Standing Sub-Committee on Teachers for Further Education and may set up other sub-committees as it finds necessary.
The Supply Working Party, one of the sub-committees set up by the former Council, last reported to that Council on 29th October, 1962.
