HC Deb 22 May 1969 vol 784 cc117-8W
64. Mr. Shinwell

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science what progress has been made in settling the dispute in the county of Durham between the National Association of Schoolmasters and the Durham County and Easington Education Authorities.

Miss Bacon

I understand that the local education authority and the National Association of Schoolmasters have agreed to ask the Government's conciliation officers to help in settling the dispute. I hope that there will be a successful outcome to this useful initiative.
