Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 7 December 2011
35 Deputy James Bannon asked the Minister for Social Protection the reason a person (details supplied) in County Longford has not received details requested relating to outstanding PRSI payment, which he disputes and which are impacting on his right to a contributory State pension; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [39149/11]
View answerThe person concerned has outstanding PRSI liabilities in respect of the years 1991/92, 1994/95 and 1995/96. Details of the outstanding amounts were provided to him on 28 September 2011. It is a condition of the State Pension (Contributory) scheme that all self-employment PRSI contributions due by an individual have been paid before entitlement to the pension can be determined.
