Ruairi Quinn (Dublin South East, Labour)

I move amendment No. 13:

In page 9, to delete lines 5 to 13 and substitute the following:

"(a) a requirement that a person referred to in paragraphs (a) and (b) of subsection (8) be employed in the place of a registered teacher in a recognised school in a position remunerated, or to be remunerated, out of monies provided by the Oireachtas if, and only if, no registered teacher is available to take up the position in question;".

This is essentially a drafting amendment which seeks to apply a belt and braces approach by including the reference to a "recognised school".
