asked the Minister for Education whether all claims in respect of the Interim Grant for Secondary Teachers for the current financial year have yet been met; whether any of the grant remains undisbursed; and, if so, if he will state what the amount is.
CEISTEANNA.—QUESTIONS. [ORAL ANSWERS.] - INTERIM GRANT FOR SECONDARY TEACHERS.
All claims already received, and which fulfilled the Regulations for the payment of the Interim Grant have now been paid; outstanding claims on which a decision has not yet been made and amounting to about £300, have yet to be met.
The actual balance of the grant remaining undisbursed at present is £11,708, out of which administration expenses have to be met. These expenses amounted to £230 last year.
