The allowance being sought by the person concerned is the category 2 allowance payable to teachers who are seconded to a range of positions under the various national education initiatives, in accordance with the findings of the teachers arbitration board in July 2003.

The person concerned is not a seconded teacher. My Department is reviewing the arrangements applying under the various national education initiatives following the implementation of the seconded teachers arbitration award and I will advise the Deputy as to the outcome when the review is completed.
