PARLIAMENTARY EARLY DAY MOTION
EQUALITY OF TREATMENT AND TEACHERS SUPERANNUATION (23 September 1992)

That this House calls for a change in the regulations affecting theoperation of teachers' superannuation schemes so that a dependent's pension can pass to the spouse of a retired female teacher upon her death on the same basis as occurs for the widow of a male teacher; notes that this anomaly has only been rectified in connection with female teachers who retired in 1988 or afterwards; and calls for equality of treatment between male and female teachers, especially as their superannuation contributions have been made on a common basis.
