View answerIt is proposed to answer Questions Nos. 758 and 759 together.
I have clarified with the Deputy that the information he seeks relates to total contributions for self-employed persons — PRSI Class S — and employers and employees.
An analysis of PRSI collected in 2009 together with the 2010 estimate under the general headings of employer, employee and self employed persons is set out in the following table:

Provisional figures up to end December are not yet available. The figures shown above are net of the health contribution and the training fund levy. A breakdown of social insurance by PRSI class will not be available until employers P35s are returned to the Revenue Commissioners in 2010 and the data breakdown is transferred to this Department towards the end of the year.
