It is what the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform is assigning if either the Haddington Road agreement is implemented in full or the alternative arises, namely, the changes in the FEMPI legislation. Presumably, it is a mixture of those two but it could change if the teachers change their attitude.
I do not want to say anything which would in any way prejudice this as it is an internal matter for the unions and they have their own internal decision-making process. We must await their decision before we can calculate more accurately than the estimates we have at present.
