Public Accounts Committee

2015 Annual Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 26 - Education and Skills

9:00 am

Mr. Seán Ó Foghlú:

We treated the board and committee members as self-employed and subjected them to professional services withholding tax but they should have been subject to PAYE, PRSI and USC. Those were interpretations that we worked through with Revenue and its officials accepted that we had been acting genuinely but that we were acting inappropriately.
