I propose to take Questions Nos. 118 and 122 together.
The criteria for the award of incremental credit (including teaching service in equivalent schools/colleges in the European Union) for recognised post-primary teachers under Circulars 29/2007 and 29/2010 was agreed under the auspices of the Teacher Conciliation Council (TCC). The Council is comprised of representatives of the teachers, school management, the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform and the Department of Education & Skills and is chaired by an official of the Workplace Relations Commission.
Where a party to the TCC has a concern regarding the terms of a Department Circular they may request that the matter be placed on the agenda of a TCC meeting. It should be noted that claims by or on behalf of individual teachers are excluded.
