Written answers

I propose to take Questions Nos. 1269 to 1271, inclusive, together.

The following tables show the number of persons who had reckonable earnings for Social insurance purposes only within the bands requested by the Deputy. Reckonable earnings generally refers to income derived from insurable employment (i.e. employment income) which is taxed under PAYE. Those paying PRSI on reckonable earnings are referred to as employed contributors. PRSI contributions paid on reckonable earnings are recorded under one of the employment Classes A, B, C, D, E, H and J. The Department does not hold information on gross income.
