Yes, perhaps Mr. Ó Foghlú might indicate the number of teachers involved.

We have discussed active teachers and new entrants. I wish to deal now with those who have left teaching. Many of the allowances in question are pensionable. For how long does one have to be in receipt of an allowance for the gross amount to be fully pensionable? If a person decides to pursue a doctorate in the final years of his or her teaching career to increase his or her final salary, will the allowance he or she receives be fully pensionable?
