I propose to take Questions Nos. 60 and 61 together.

The Teaching Council was established on a statutory basis in March 2006. The information requested by the Deputy in respect of the financial statements of the Teaching Council since its establishment is set out in the table. This information is also available on the Teaching Council's website as part of its published financial statements and is laid in the Houses of the Oireachtas annually. Income for 2013 will be reduced by approx. €2m due to a reduction in the annual renewal fee from €90 to €65.
