(2) For the pay period 11/3/93 to 24/3/93 (which includes the

date 23/3/93) there were 69 evening college claims. Of these

49 were from permanent full-time, permanent part-t-lhV- or

temporary full-time teachers during the day. The remaining

20 claims were from casual relief teachers.

$132.75 to $185.40, depending on qualifications, status and
