In recent months, a decision in the Labour Court found that all special needs assistants, SNAs, who had previous experience as an SNA and who had a break in service would be entitled to apply to my Department for incremental credit. In light of this decision, my Department will be determining the qualifying criteria for incremental credit in consultation with the education partners. Contact will be made with the person concerned as soon as this process has been completed.
