Vol. 476 No. 4

Written Answers. - Teacher Appointments.

John Ellis

Question:

81 Mr. Ellis asked the Minister for Education if she will make permanent staff appointments at St. Angela's College, Sligo. [7171/97]

A review group, under the auspices of the Higher Education Authority is at present examining the question of teacher supply and demand in the second level sector including teachers of home economics.

Pending the outcome of this review it has not been possible to sanction the creation of permanent posts in this case. I must also emphasise that Government policy on the limitation of numbers employed in the public service imposes severe constraints on the creation of new posts.
