6.         Part E - Reimbursement of Certain Expenses Related to Medical or Dental Treatment

 

6.1       The provisions of subclauses 6.2, 6.3, 6.4, 6.5 and 6.6 of this clause apply only to a teacher who is appointed to a school included in Appendix A of this schedule, but do not apply to a teacher -

 

6.1.1    who for the time being is on maternity leave; or

 

6.1.2    who is married to a spouse or has a partner normally resident in the locality, unless such spouse or partner is normally and usually dependent upon the teacher as a consequence of illness, incapacity or other reasonable inability to earn an income sufficient to support themselves and or his or her child or children, as the case may be.

 

6.2       Where a teacher reasonably incurs reimbursable expense, the amount thereof shall be paid to that teacher upon written application made to the Secretary.

 

6.2.1    A teacher shall not be disentitled to such payment merely by reason of the fact that the reimbursable expense incurred was in relation to the attendance by or upon a duly qualified practitioner who was not the nearest duly qualified practitioner available at the relevant time if special circumstances in the particular case render it desirable that the services of some other duly qualified practitioner be sought.

 

6.2.2    In any instance in which it is necessary for the teacher or the partner of the teacher or some other attendant to accompany the person in respect of whom reimbursable expense is incurred then, upon written application by the teacher to the Secretary, the additional travel and accommodation costs reasonably and actually incurred shall be paid to the teacher.

 

6.3       A teacher who claims payment of reimbursable expenses shall provide such evidence in substantiation of the claim as the Secretary may reasonably require.

 

6.4       The Secretary shall be entitled to refuse payment of any claim where it appears that the expense arose as a direct consequence of the serious and wilful misconduct or gross negligence of the person in respect of whom the expense was incurred.

 

6.5       A teacher shall, in respect of any occurrence which gives rise to the incurring of reimbursable expense, take all reasonable steps to recover any insurance, contributory fund, workers' compensation or other benefits or common law damages as may lawfully be payable in respect thereof and any sum actually recovered in respect of items of reimbursable expense under this Schedule shall be brought to credit as against the Secretary's liability for the same.  If any such sum shall be recovered subsequently to payment by the Secretary of reimbursable expense to a teacher, that teacher shall make an appropriate repayment.  The Secretary shall not be entitled to withhold payment of reimbursable expense merely upon the ground that it or some portion of it may be recoverable at some time in the future from a third party.

 

6.6       The Secretary may, by notice in writing, require any teacher to effect and keep on foot a policy of insurance or membership of a medical fund to cover that teacher's liability for items of the nature of reimbursable expense under this schedule.

 

6.6.1    In any such case, the Secretary shall reimburse to the teacher the amount by which any premium or contribution incurred in so doing exceeds the following amounts:

 

From the first pay period to	From the first pay period to	From the first pay period to
commence on or after	commence on or after	commence on or after
1.1.2014	1.1.2015	1.1.2016

6.6.2    If a teacher fails to comply with a requirement made by the Secretary under this subclause, such teacher shall not be entitled to claim any reimbursable expense which, but for their failure, would have been recouped to that teacher as a result of the relevant insurance or membership.

 

6.7       When a teacher is necessarily absent from duty for the purpose of securing advice and or treatment from a duly qualified practitioner for such teacher or dependent partner or child of such teacher, any period of such absence involved in travelling to or from the place of residence of the teacher to the place at which the advice or treatment is obtained shall not be debited against any sick leave credit to which that teacher is entitled.  Provided that this clause shall be without prejudice to the right of the Secretary in their discretion to temporarily appoint the teacher to a school nearer to the place of consultation or treatment where they may deem it desirable so to do.

 

6.8       The Secretary shall be entitled to decline payment of reimbursable expense to a teacher in any instance in which such expense relates to a non-urgent elective consultation or treatment which might reasonably have been sought during a vacation period whilst the teacher or their relevant dependent partner, child or children (as the case may be) had, in the normal course, travelled to a location at which the type of consultation or treatment could be obtained.

 

7.         Part F - Payment of Allowances According to Marital Status (Payment of Allowances Regardless of Marital Status)

 

7.1       Subject to subclause 7.2 of this clause, where a married couple consists of two teachers who are otherwise eligible for payment of an allowance under this schedule then, in the case of an allowance under:

 

7.1.1    subclause 2.1 or 2.2 of clause 2 of this schedule, each teacher shall only be entitled to one half of the allowance provided therein for a teacher with a dependent partner;

 

7.1.2    subclause 3.3 of clause 3 of this schedule, each teacher shall only be entitled to one half of the allowance provided therein for a teacher with a dependent child or children;

 

7.1.3    clause 4 of this schedule, each teacher shall only be entitled to one half of the motor vehicle allowance applicable to a single teacher;

 

7.1.4    clause 5 of this schedule, each teacher shall only be entitled to one half of the vacation travel allowance; and

 

7.1.5    subclause 6.2 of clause 6 of this schedule, each teacher shall not qualify for reimbursement of expenses in so far as the teacher's partner qualifies for and claims reimbursement as a teacher.

 

7.2       Where a married couple includes a teacher entitled to allowances under the award and a person entitled to a similar allowance pursuant to the Crown Employees (Public Service Conditions of Employment) Award 2009 published 31 July 2009 (368 I.G. 884) as varied, or its successor, the teacher shall only receive the difference between that allowance and the married couple or dependent allowances under this schedule.

 

8.         Part G - Locality Allowance Committee

 

8.1       A Locality Allowance Committee shall be established for the purpose of -

 

8.1.1    investigating all matters in dispute and reporting and making recommendations thereon to the Secretary and the Federation;

 

8.1.2    recommending the inclusion or deletion of schools to be covered by the provisions of clause 3 of this schedule; and

 

8.1.3    recommending the appropriate groupings and alteration of existing groupings of schools within clause 3 of this schedule.

 

8.2       The Locality Allowance Committee shall -

 

8.2.1    consist of an equal number of representatives nominated by the Secretary and the Federation;

 

8.2.2    elect its own chairperson, who shall not have a casting vote;

 

8.2.3    be permitted to act in the absence of any member, provided more than one half of the members are present; and

 

8.2.4    by its creation and operation not affect the exercise of the powers and functions of any tribunal constituted under the Industrial Relations Act 1996.
