One of the main methods through which unscrupulous cowboy builders and building contractors deny construction workers proper pay and conditions and rob the taxpayer of, I would argue, tens if not hundreds of millions of euro is bogus self-employment, which is a euphemism for tax fraud. I wish to ascertain the latest net figures from the RCT1 tax head for construction workers. How many workers are employed in construction under that head? How does the net tax revenue compare with that from construction workers under the PAYE system?
