I move amendment No. 34:

In page 25, to delete lines 1 to 4 and substitute the following:

“(3) Save in accordance with a collective agreement negotiated with a recognised trade union or staff association and approved by the Minister with the consent of the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform, an education and training board shall accept into its employment on the employment transfer day in accordance with this section any person who immediately before that day is a member of the staff of An tSeirbhís and is designated by the Minister for employment by that education and training board, on such terms and conditions of service relating to remuneration as are not less favourable than the terms and conditions of service relating to remuneration to which the person was subject immediately before that day.”.

Amendment No. 34 is a technical drafting amendment providing that the terms and conditions for a person transferred from SOLAS to the education and training board shall be no less favourable than the terms and conditions of service relating to remuneration to which the person was subject immediately before the transfer date. Amendment No. 35 is a technical drafting amendment that provides for the deletion of section 45(4). These provisions have been replaced by the provisions contained in amendment No. 34. Amendment No. 36 is a technical drafting amendment that provides that the terms and conditions relating to superannuation as applied to the person immediately before the employment transfer day shall apply following the transfer to an education and training board. Amendment No. 38 is a technical drafting amendment to amend "transfer day" and substitute "employment transfer day" in section 45(7).
