Clare Daly
Question:190. Deputy Clare Daly asked the Minister for Education and Skills if his attention has been drawn to the fact that the job share programme for special needs assistants has not been addressed by his Department since 23 October, when they promised a final draft for SIPTU; if the National Council for Speech Education and his Department guidelines have been modified towards the issues regarding the 32 hour week of an SNA being a full time post, with some SNAs who will be paid for their half post of 16 hours, based on their old contracts after 2005, and have not been modified since, but the new entrants who will jobshare will only be in receipt of 14 hours, ten minutes' pay since the new contract will state only the school day, but not the same time as stated in the postholder's SNA contract; and when this matter will be resolved.
