Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine
Brexit: Discussion with Mushroom Industry
5:00 pm
Ms Rowena Dwyer:
Absolutely. However, to clarify, as Mr. McGovern stated, the precedent is there. The committee might note that in our presentation we reflect the fact that some mushroom enterprises - probably quite a few - pay some of their employees at the 10.75% rate of PRSI and, as a result, there needs to be a further look at whether a measure can be applied to growers who are affected and whose employment costs are not solely within the lower 8.25% rate of PRSI.
