I take it that the Deputy is referring to pay arrears which may be due to part-time teachers in the context of the Protection of Employees (Part-time Work) Act 2001. The Department of Education and Science is working towards the implementation of a system that will facilitate the processing of all outstanding claims, including any claim in respect of the person in question. The Department is anxious to accelerate the rate of progress on this matter as quickly as possible and will be in contact with schools in due course.
