Public Service Superannuation (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill 2004: Committee Stage (Resumed).

 

1:00 pm

Fergal Browne (Fine Gael)

There is a huge shortage of teachers in the teaching profession and many unqualified teachers have positions in schools. Some teachers who retire on age grounds would love to return to the profession and continue teaching, although this might be the exception rather than the rule. When this Bill is passed, how in light of the shortage would a teacher who retired at 60 or 65, who now wanted to return to teaching, be affected?
