The estimated additional yield that would be raised by increasing both the lower and higher employer PRSI rates, currently at 8.9% and 11.15% respectively, by 0.1 percentage points is €119 million.

This estimate does not take into account any possible changes in employer or employee behaviour, arising from changing the rates of the employer PRSI contribution.

I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
