§ MR. MURPHY (Kerry, E.)To ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland whether under present regulations any special consideration with regard to increments and promotion can be granted by the Commissioners of National Education to teachers who are removed from small to large and important schools.
§ (Answered by Mr. Bryce.) The Commissioners of National Education inform me that under Rule 112 (e) assistant teachers who may be promoted to principalships of large and important schools receive special consideration when their salaries as principals are being fixed. The Commissioners have submitted proposals for extending special consideration to the cases of teachers generally who may be transferred from small to large and inportant schools, and the matter is now under consideration.
