§ Mr. Ernie Rossasked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will publish a table showing how teachers' salaries in Scotland—primary and secondary—compare with those in England.
§ Mr. Alexander FletcherThe salary scales of primary and secondary teachers in Scotland are set out in "Scottish Teachers Salaries Memorandum, 1980", as amended, and those for teachers in England in "Scales of Salaries for Teachers in Primary and Secondary Schools, England and Wales 1979", as amended. Copies of the relevant publications arc in the Library. Direct comparison of salaries is difficult because of differences in the structure of the scales and allowances in the two countries.
