HC Deb 16 June 1988 vol 135 cc186-7W
Mr. Dickens

To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Science when the "School Teachers' Pay and Conditions Document 1988" will be published.

Mr. Kenneth Baker

The "School Teachers' Pay and Conditions Document 1988" was published this morning. I have now made an order which will give effect to the provisions in this document. It provides for the implementation of the recommendations on pay rates of the interim advisory committee on school teachers' pay and conditions. A circular has also been sent today to each local education authority. Copies of the 1988 document and the circular have been placed in the Vote Office.
