Desmond J. O'Malley
Question:53 Mr. O'Malley asked the Minister for Finance the reason interest is not paid by the Revenue Commissioners on PAYE refunds and overpayments when interest is paid by the Commissioners on overpayments by self-employed people; the reason PAYE workers are treated differently in this regard; and his views on whether this is fair if the overpayment arose because of a mistake by the Revenue Commissioners.
