Question:
To ask the Minister of Education whether the finance to fund a 2.2 per cent pay rise for Education Authority workers for the 2014-16 pay period has been ring-fenced by his Department

Answer:

I can confirm the 2.2% pay award due to eligible Education and Library Board (ELB) staff (now Education Authority (EA)) for the period 1 January 2015 to 31 March 2015 has been accounted for in the Department of Education’s 2014-15 budget.
