§ Mr. Barnettasked the Secretary of State for Education and Science what assumptions are made in the White Paper "The Government's Expenditure Plans" for the years 1986–87 to 1988–89 for the likely increase in teachers' salaries.
§ Sir Keith JosephThe plans are consistent with moderate increases in both 1985–86 and 1986–87. No planning assumptions have been made for later years, since no decisions have yet been taken about the level of total local authority expenditure after 1986–87.
