Mr. Willis
asked the Secretary of State for Scotland whether he is aware that general division clerks of the Scottish Dental Estimates Board in Scotland receive a lower salary than their counterparts in England; and what steps he proposes to take to remedy this position.
Mr. Woodburn
The scales in existence in Scotland are those recommended by the Scottish National Joint Industrial Council for similar posts in the local government service. I am aware of these differences as a result of better scales having been agreed to by the English counterpart of this organisation and the matter has now been referred to the Health Services Whitley Council.
