HC Deb 18 March 1965 vol 708 c298W
40. Brigadier Clarke

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science whether, in view of the rise in the cost of living, he will now review the scale of teachers' salaries.

Mr. Crosland

Negotiations have already started on new pay scales for teachers.

41. Mr. William Hamilton

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science what discussions he is having with the teachers' organisations on alternative methods of financing the payment of salaries within the teaching profession.

Mr. Prentice

None. As my right hon. Friend the Chancellor of the Exchequer has already said, the Government are reviewing the whole question of local and central government finance and hope in due course to initiate discussions with the local authority associations.
