It is the intention of Government that staff paid directly by a recognised school or Education and Training Board and whose salaries were adjusted in accordance with the Financial Emergency Measures in the Public Interest (No. 2) Act 2009 will benefit from an increase in salary. The details will be conveyed to the relevant staff by my Department in the normal manner.
