I propose to take Questions Nos. 241 and 263 together.
The core function of the redeployment arrangements is to facilitate the redeployment of all surplus permanent teachers to other schools that have vacancies. Thereafter, schools are required under the panel arrangements to fill permanent vacancies from supplementary panels comprised of eligible fixed-term (temporary/substitute) and part-time teachers. Arrangements for panel access for fixed term (temporary/substitute) and part-time teachers for the 2014/15 school year are currently being reviewed with the relevant education partners, and my Department will publish the finalised arrangements in due course.
