HC Deb 19 July 1988 vol 137 c540W
27. Mr. Alan W. Williams

To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Science what is the expected number of vacancies for teachers in primary schools for September.

Mrs. Rumbold

My Department does not collect projections of vacancies from local education authorities and schools who are themselves responsible for decisions on staffing levels. The education service in Wales is the responsibility of my right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for Wales.
