HC Deb 13 March 1985 vol 75 c174W
38. Mr. McKelvey

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland when he last met representatives of the Educational Institutes of Scottish Teachers; and what subjects were discussed.

Mr. Allan Stewart

I refer the hon. Member to the reply which my right hon. Friend gave earlier today to the hon. Member for Livingston (Mr. Cook). On both occasions the teaching unions' demand for an independent pay review and the Government's proposal of a review of pay and conditions of service within the existing negotiating machinery were discussed.
