I propose to take Questions Nos. 96 and 97 together.
As the Deputy is aware, the current Director of the Teaching Council is an officer of my Department whose substantive grade is that of Director. During the period of his secondment to the Teaching Council, this officer continues to be paid in accordance with his substantive grade, which is in line with normal practice in such instances. The total salary paid to this officer in 2013 was €110,255 in respect of which my Department received a total of €98,550 by way of reimbursement from the Teaching Council of Ireland.
