I move amendment No. 2:

In page 7, between lines 27 and 28 to insert the following:

Report on PRSI increases

4. The Minister shall, within three months of the passing of this Act, prepare and lay before Dáil Éireann a report on a revised and progressive schedule of PRSI increases in the years 2024 to 2029 which maintains the rate of employee PRSI at 4 per cent.”.

The amendment is self-explanatory and is a reasonable request. We simply want to see a report on a revised and progressive schedule of PRSI increases in the years 2024 to 2029 which maintains the rate of employee PRSI at 4% because that is what should be happening.
