Denis Naughten
Question:552. Deputy Denis Naughten asked the Minister for Health the reason the primary care reimbursement scheme, PCRS, is refusing to accept the self-assessment - Chapter 4 of Part 41A of the Taxes Consolidation Act 1997, concerning income tax - for the relevant year return from the Revenue Commissioners as a valid assessment of income, and is instead forcing applicants to go back to their accountant and the Revenue Commissioners to obtain a Form 11 return summary, which provides the exact same validation of income; the reason the PCRS does not get this information directly from the Revenue Commissioners given the data sharing agreement; the reason the PCRS is so insistent on the harp when it has direct access to the data held by the Revenue Commissioners; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
