Question:

571 Mr. Ring asked the Minister for Education and Science his views on a teacher sitting in a school (details supplied) in County Mayo on full pay but not teaching pupils. [7568/02]

Michael Ring

Question:

572 Mr. Ring asked the Minister for Education and Science the pay which has been received by a person employed by Mayo VEC as a teacher in the past six months; the date this person actually stopped teaching due to the dispute; the number of pupils this person usually teaches; the person teaching these pupils at present; and the cost in this regard. [7569/02]

I propose to take Questions Nos. 568 to 572, inclusive, together.

The teacher in question is employed by a vocational education committee. It is a matter for the vocational education committee, as the responsible statutory authority and employer, to ensure that its teaching staff are timetabled and deployed in accordance with the needs of its scheme. I understand that the vocational education committee is dealing with the matter raised by the Deputy with a view to deploying the post in question appropriately within its scheme. It would not be appropriate for me to comment further at this time on a personnel management matter relating to an individual VEC employee.
