Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 16 April 2013
408. Deputy Seán Conlan asked the Minister for Education and Skills if he will review the decision of his Department not to award a pension to a person (details supplied) in County Monaghan; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [16505/13]
Amharc ar fhreagraThe person referred to by the Deputy while employed in a primary school was not a qualified teacher. The legislation in place at that time limited membership of the pension scheme to qualified teachers. My Department administers the pension scheme for primary teachers. My Department does not administer the scheme for VECs. This is administered by the individual VEC.
