asked the Minister for Education whether, in order to remove the present discord and discontent among national teachers, he will set up an arbitration board, without further delay, to deal with the question of teachers' salaries and with other matters.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Teachers' Salaries.
As I have already indicated I intend to set up arbitration machinery for the various groups of teachers, somewhat analogous to that already established for the Civil Service. I am having the matter investigated at present, but as there are many difficulties involved I do not hope to be able to make an announcement at a very early date.
Can the Minister give even an approximate date?
No.
