The table provided in response to parliamentary question no. 463 of 12 December 2023 showed the estimated additional PRSI yields in each of the individual years 2024 to 2030 and not cumulative year on year. To take the example provided in the question, the €913 million additional yield in the class A rate of employer PRSI in 2028 represents the additional yield on earnings in that year arising from the 0.7% increase in the PRSI rate which would be in effect in that year, compared with the position where none of the rate increases from 2024-2028 had occurred.
