I am advised by Revenue that it has reviewed the tax situation of the person in question and confirmed to me that the income earned by him under the Rural Social Scheme is correctly taxable.

Revenue has also confirmed that the person did not claim his full tax credits for the years in question, which resulted in overpayments of tax by him. Revenue has now allocated the correct credits to the person and balancing statements and refunds in respect of the years 2015 to 2018 (inclusive) will issue to him in the coming days.
