Yesterday, the committee met teachers and representatives of the Department of Education and Skills. Teachers receive an allowance for yard duty supervision but the allowance is pensionable. It is additional work, almost akin to overtime, and amounts to 33 hours per year. The additional hours for the Irish Prison Service staff are very close to core pay but it is not pensionable. It is akin to what the teachers had yesterday, which is pensionable.
