I am advised by the Revenue Commissioners that the PAYE Income Tax and Universal Social Charge (USC) paid in respect of employees in the construction sector, as well as the numbers of employments for such workers, for the period 2008 to 2013 (the latest year for which figures are available), is shown in the Table. It should be noted that an individual PAYE employee may have one or more employments in a year. The number of individual PAYE employees in the construction sector for the same period is also shown in the table.
