I propose to take Questions Nos. 232 and 252 together.
Up to the current academic year, the course referred to by the Deputy was operated as a Post Leaving Certificate (PLC) course in an approved PLC centre managed by City of Dublin Vocational Education Committee (CDVEC). I understand that a decision was made not to continue to operate this course for the forthcoming academic year. The person referred to by the Deputy was employed by the VEC on a non-casual part-time teacher basis for the 2011/2012 academic year to deliver this course. All such teacher posts automatically end at the end of the academic year.
