Officials of my Department will contact the person referred to by the Deputy in relation to the deductions made from his salary. Generally, since the 2nd June, 2002, a teacher is eligible for the award of superannuation benefits where they have a minimum of 2 years pensionable service. Where a teacher commenced teaching after April 2004, superannuation benefits are payable from their 65th birthday. If a teacher does not have the minimum required service on resignation, the superannuation contributions less appropriate tax are refunded on request.
