Questions (125)

Noel Harrington

Question:

125. Deputy Noel Harrington asked the Minister for Finance if he will ensure that the Revenue Commissioners will provide a verifiable PPS number to the National Transport Office to enable a person (details supplied) in County Cork who has been unable to work since 1 January to return to making their living; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [7872/13]

Written answers

Minister for Finance

I am informed by Revenue that they have made contact with the National Transport Authority regarding this case. The taxpayer in question is in possession of a valid PPSN as an employee, but is not recorded as being self-employed. This led to some confusion which has now been resolved, and I understand that a renewed licence has issued to the taxpayer.
