Under the Teaching Council Acts 2001-2015 the Teaching Council is, since 2006, the statutory regulator and standards body for the teaching profession in this state.

The Teaching Council is the designated authority in this State for considering applications for registration from teachers who qualified in other States.

I note that the person who is the subject of the Deputy's question appears to have conditions attached to her registration as a post primary teacher but holds a contract of indefinite duration in a primary school.

Therefore the teacher should continue to liaise directly with the Teaching Council in order to resolve the matters in relation to registration.
