Salaries Of Speech Therapists

EDM number 101 in 1989-90, proposed by Doug Hoyle on 28/11/1989.

That this House is concerned at the inadequate provision of speech therapy in the National Health Service; finds it absurd that expensively trained speech therapists are leaving the profession because of low salaries; believes that the lack of reasonable remuneration for this group of highly skilled professionals is probably due to the fact that they are a largely female profession; and calls upon Her Majesty's Government to ask their representatives on the Whitley Council management side to significantly increase their current offer of 6.5 per cent.

This motion has been signed by a total of 106 MPs, 1 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
