Mrs. Barbara Castle First Secretary of State'

House of Commons

LONDON

From the Hong Kong Chinese Servants Association. Congratulations

on the passage of your Equal Pay Bill. Hong Kong Government

nurses and teachers continue to be victimized by a policy of

unequal pay for equal work and the differentiation between married

and single women. The continuation of such a policy is demora-

lizing and causing massive discontent with the professions.

Nurses and teachers have completely lost faith in Government's

intention to honour its promise to implement equal pay.

Bitter disappointment is felt in the failure of constituati-

onal approaches on these matters. That's why we have recently

submitted an appeal to her Majesty the Queen. We now beseech

you to help in your official capacity.

From:

The Chairman HK Nurses Group HKCCSA EIO Hon Secretary Chung

Wai Leug President HKCCSA

Tsin Sai Nin Chairman Government Teachers Group HKCCSA.
