Pension Related Deduction (PRD) is not a tax. It is a deduction from the remuneration of public servants who are members of a public service pension scheme or who have an analogous arrangement. The implementation of the deduction would not be a matter for my Department or the Revenue Commissioners, but rather for the employer of the individual concerned. It is not however possible in the time available to identify the individual’s specific employer from the details provided. If the Deputy is in a position to provide such details to me, I will arrange for the query to be directed to the appropriate Minister for response though it might perhaps be best if the individual could, in the first instance, approach their employer directly.
