HC Deb 13 July 1979 vol 970 c344W
Mr. Pawsey

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science if he will grant the Professional Association of Teachers a seat on the Burnham negotiating committee when its membership exceeds 20,000.

Dr. Boyson

My right hon. and learned Friend is prepared to review the representation of relevant organisations in the Burnham committees whenever he thinks it necessary. However, he is unwilling to be committed to any new review on a simply numerical criterion.
