Stephen S. Donnelly
Ceist:224 Deputy Stephen S. Donnelly asked the Minister for Education and Skills if his attention has been drawn to a new policy of the Dublin Institute of Technology in relation to job vacancies which states, if you have a current or previous employment relationship in a non-permanent capacity with the Institute, you will not be deemed eligible to apply for this post; his views on whether this complies with the spirit of the European Employment Directive; if it is related as claimed to the employment control framework; if he is concerned about the implications for sustainability of existing research investment by the State and their ability to further invest in niche research expertise at the DIT; if he is further concerned that this will reduce the competitiveness of research in the DIT/ third-level sector; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
