I propose to take Questions Nos. 192 and 194 together. Circular 0023/2009, which is available on my Department's website, outlines the impact on Community and Comprehensive schools of the Government decision to implement a recruitment and promotion moratorium in the public sector. As the Deputy will be aware, positions other than teacher and special needs assistant posts in schools and VECs, including the posts to which the Deputy refers, are comprehended by this decision.
