As the Deputy will be aware, pay talk discussions are currently ongoing between Public Service Management and the Public Services Committee of ICTU. It would be inappropriate for me as Minister for Education and Skills to make any further comment at this time.
With regard to Junior Cycle discussions, it is accepted that the various workload implications of implementation of the Framework will have to be accommodated within teachers' timetables. Intensive discussions in this regard will advance without delay and will be completed by the end of June 2015.
