38. Deputy Dessie Ellis asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Social Protection if she will confirm if section 27(f)(iv) of Statutory Instrument No. 312 of 1996 or any other provision exempts a person (details supplied) from having to pay PRSI on the portion of income that comes from the person's workers' director fee in CIE. [48623/14]
View answerArticle 27 of Statutory Instrument 312 of 1996 provides for the exemption of certain forms of income from the charge of PRSI. Article 27(f)(iv) of the Statutory Instrument exempts income received in respect of “Public Offices under the State”. As the portion of income that comes from worker director fees in CIE comes within the scope of this provision, the individual is exempt from having to pay PRSI on this income.
