Pat Gallagher
Question:44 Mr. Gallagher (Laoighis-Offaly) asked the Minister for Education if she will sanction the granting of an eligible part-time teachers contract to the director of a travellers' training centre (details supplied) in County Laois in view of the fact that other persons holding similar positions have been granted such contracts; her views on whether the non-granting of an eligible part-time teachers contract to this person constitutes equal treatment; and if she will make a statement on the matter.
