PQ 166
186 Mr. Howlin asked the Minister for Social and Family Affairs if, when paid in a lump sum, backdated wage increases to public service workers under benchmarking and Sustaining Progress are subject to PRSI deduction in cases in which, even with benchmarking and Sustaining Progress enhancement, the weekly wage remains below the PRSI threshold; if, in view of the fact that there would be no PRSI deduction from the weekly wage of such workers had benchmarking and Sustaining Progress increases been paid from the due date of January 2004, deferred payment of entitlements will not result in financial disadvantage to low paid workers through deduction of PRSI for which they would not ordinarily be liable; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
