In the 2012/2013 school year 96.9 million euros was paid in salary to teachers employed in fee charging post primary schools.
The teachers in question, whose salaries are paid from monies voted by the Oireachtas, are members of the contributory pension scheme for teachers administered by my Department. These teachers pay pension contributions and pension related deductions (PRD) by deduction from salary and accrue pension entitlements in respect of the period of employment.
