asked the President of the Board of Education whether he has received from the Lindsey County Council any representations regarding the present cost of teachers' salaries; and, if so, what action he preposes to take?

I have received the representations referred to. Teachers' salary scales are in the first instance a matter for the Burnham Committee, and I have accordingly suggested to the authority that any representations that they wish to make should be addressed to the County Councils Association, which is one of the associations represented on that committee.
