The primary redeployment panel rules agreed between the relevant education partners and my Department provide supplementary panel rights to eligible fixed-term teachers with between three and five years reckonable teaching service. The teacher referred to by the Deputy was offered these rights in 2010 in respect of the 2010-2011 school year but failed to respond at the time. Under the agreed rules which are published on my Department's website, teachers who do not respond to an offer of panel rights within a specified time forfeit their panel rights.
