Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Social Protection

Actuarial Review of the Social Insurance Fund: Discussion

10:20 am

Mr. Paul Morrin:

Many of the pressures of long-term unemployment are not on the social insurance fund but on social assistance payments such as jobseeker's payments. On the expenditure side it would not necessarily fall into the scope of this review. There is certainly a projection for the extra income from more employment, which, as Ms Roach mentioned, is in table 8.9.
