Question:
To ask the Minister of Education, pursuant to AQW 31023/22-27, to detail when all vacancies will be filled.

Answer:

The Education Authority (EA) has advised that:

All recruitment is being progressed as quickly as possible in line with HR policy and Trade Union Side (TUS) engagement requirements. A substantial proportion of the recruitment exercises have already been completed but individual circumstances dictate when posts can be taken up. It should also be noted that vacancies continue to arise and have to be filled throughout each year.
