I wish to advise the Deputy that these are provisional figures for the 2021 contribution year as some contributors, such as those who make their returns via the self-assessment system, have until October 2022 to discharge their social insurance liability for 2021. The Deputy should also note that individual contributors may have a liability under more than one social insurance class.

Social insurance data relating to the 2022 contribution year will be available following receipt of such data from the Revenue Commissioners which is expected to be in the first quarter of 2023.

I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
