Richard Bruton
Question:94 Mr. R. Bruton asked the Minister for Education if her attention has been drawn to the fact that temporary teachers who have been working in their post for less than two years in the secondary voluntary sector are deemed ineligible to apply for that post when it is made permanent; her views on whether such rules would be deemed to be in breach of the Unfair Dismissals Act if they were operated by a private sector employer; and if she will make a statement on the matter.
