Public Accounts Committee
Department of Education and Skills - Review of Allowances
1:50 pm
Mr. Philip Crosby:
Normally, we would expect the head of a university department to be somebody at professor level. If somebody is not at that level, for example, if he or she is a lecturer or senior lecturer who acts up and takes on a head of department role, the allowance would be paid in that case. Effectively, they are taking on higher duties in the professorial space so they would be paid an allowance for that.
