asked the Minister for Education whether general agreement has been reached with the Managers Association on the promotion position in schools run by religious orders.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Promotion of Teachers.
52.
My recent salary proposals contained the following statement in relation to posts of responsibility:
Allowance money will be distributed in a fashion equitable to lay and clerical teachers.
That statement was made with the full knowledge and consent of the secondary school managerial bodies and on the understanding that meetings would be held in the autumn between the school managers, the ASTI and the Department to work out the necessary details.
Has the agreement been so far the agreement of all these bodies referred to?
Is this in relation to the managers or to the Department or——
——in relation to the managers and the teaching bodies.
It would not be possible for me to say at this stage.
Prior to the autumn meeting, the Minister could not say it at this stage?
No, I do not think so.
