Strikes by State secondary schoolteachers are being considered because of dissatisfaction over salary claims.
At the annual conference I of the Post Primary Teachers’ ’Association, the 105 delegates agreed that there must be solidarity with other State servants, such as the Public Service Association, to maintain relativity with the private sector in the fixing of State wages and salary i claims. The conference called on 'the Government to fulfill its obligation as a “fair and reasonable empoyer” by announcing forthwith the application to all State wage (and salary rates, from July 1, ; 1975. of the full amount of ithe 4.8 per cent wage—drift 'which occurred in the private : sector in the period from f April 1974 to April-1975, as i revealed by the April halfj yearly survey.
