250. To ask the Minister for Education and Skills the entitlements that will arise for temporary day instructors that are employed by ETBs and are paying pension related deductions; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [44645/18]

I cannot comment on the entitlements that will arise for the cohort of instructors referred to by the Deputy; the relevant ETB, as their employer, should be in a position to provide such information.

However the general criteria for being liable for pension related deductions may be of interest in this context as they are that:

One is a public servant and –

(a) Is a member of a public service pension scheme (defined in section 1 of the FEMPI Act 2009) or

(b) Is entitled to a benefit under such a scheme or

(c) Receives a payment in lieu of membership in such a scheme.
