Proinsias De Rossa
Question:21 Proinsias De Rossa asked the Minister for Finance if his attention has been drawn to the fact that according to the report of the Revenue Commissioners only 4,400 self-employed taxpayers declared an income of more than £25,000 for the tax year to April 1988; if he considers that this is an accurate reflection of the income position of the self-employed in view of the number of high earning professions which would fall into the self-employed category; if he will consider requesting the Revenue Commissioners to review the matter; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
