Joint Oireachtas Committee on Social Protection

General Scheme of the Social Welfare (Pay-Related Social Insurance and Jobseeker’s Pay-Related Benefit Provisions) Bill 2024: Department of Social Protection

Mr. Brian Duff:

That is correct. It recommended a greater increase in class S than is envisaged in the heads of Bill. Those recommendations were considered as part of the decision-making relating to the PRSI increases and what is called the PRSI road map for the next five years but the outcome was that the decision was that the increases in class S along those five incremental increases would be levied on class S in the same way as they are levied on the other classes.
