92. Deputy Paula Butterly asked the Minister for Education and Youth if she will address the impact of the recent Teaching Council circular which changed beauty and related educators in Further Education settings to operate with an educator badge rather than a Teaching Council number; if she will clarify the reason applicants who applied for Teaching Council registration prior to the circular are now being refused; the actions that will be taken to ensure that the absence of a Teaching Council number does not prevent qualified educators from securing employment in secondary schools, particularly in roles that require a teaching number for work with LCA students; and if she will make a statement on the matter.
