SPEECH AND LANGUAGE THERAPISTS

Early day motion 846, tabled 13 June 2000 by Jim Cousins (Labour). Signed by 63 members.

That this House congratulates the Labour Government on its resolution of the discrimination between the annual earnings of speech and language therapists and their male comparator professions; notes these cases were originally lodged in 1985; and condemns the previous Conservative administration which refused to resolve the issue and sent MSF and the Equal Opportunities Commission back and forth to the European Courts and English tribunal system.

Signatures by party: Labour 52, Labour/Co-operative 6, Liberal Democrat 4, UUP 1.
