Provided always that the provisions of paragraphs

service who, at the date of their engagement for service, was resident in the
relevant area.

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:

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;

this schedule; and

appropriate groupings and alteration of existing groupings of schools within
