Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Salaries of Secondary Teachers.
Mr. Byrne
An application has been received from the Association of Secondary Teachers for an increase in the incremental salaries fixed in November, 1946. I am not at present in a position to say when the consideration of the matter may be completed.
Mr. Byrne
Will it be completed in time to include it in the coming Estimates?
I am not in the position to say anything more.
Mr. Byrne
The Minister is not turning it down? There is nothing included in the Estimates for it.
