The number of persons whose salary is within the pay ranges requested by the Deputy is provided in the table below.
It is not possible to provide this information in relation to personnel employed in Vocational Education Committees (VECs) as my Department does not hold information on payments other than the basic salary scales applicable to VEC employees. Each VEC is a separate employer operating its own payroll system and, accordingly, the information sought would require an inordinate amount of administrative time to compile. However, an estimate in relation to teachers employed by VECs has been included in the table.
It is not possible to provide the information requested in relation to the cost of increments of the persons in each of these salary ranges.

Notes: The figures in relation to Teachers and Non-Teaching Staff in Primary and Post-Primary Schools above do not include casual employees.
The figures for Post-Primary Teachers (excl VEC) are low as they do not include teachers that retired during the period January-June 2012. They were replaced by casual part-time teachers during those months.
The figures provided in respect of teachers in VECs is an estimate as the actual figures are not readily available.
