The number of teachers on the payroll of my Department in receipt of allowances in respect of the qualifications referred to by the Deputy are contained in the following table.

Education and Training Boards (ETBs) employ and pay their own staff and, accordingly, my Department does not have available to it a breakdown of the numbers of ETB teaching staff in the categories requested by the Deputy.
