Article 27 of Statutory Instrument 312 of 1996 provides for the exemption of certain forms of income from the charge of PRSI. Article 27(f)(iv) of the Statutory Instrument exempts income received in respect of “Public Offices under the State”. As the portion of income that comes from worker director fees in CIE comes within the scope of this provision, the individual is exempt from having to pay PRSI on this income.
