646. Deputy Catherine Murphy asked the Minister for Education further to Parliamentary Question No. 657 of 21 March 2023, if she will again review the case of the person in view of the fact that there will now be a significant increase on their skill-set in the special needs department due to the amalgamation of three schools into one.

View answerI wish to advise the Deputy that I have reviewed the issue raised by her and I am satisfied that the position remains as stated in my previous response.
The outcome of the public service-wide review of allowances and premium payments (September 2012) by the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform was implemented correctly and this means that many allowances, including the allowance being sought by this teacher, is no longer payable to Teachers who either commenced working in the public sector on or after 1st February 2012, or who had not previously been in receipt of the allowance prior to 1st February, 2012.
