I move:

That the Taxes Consolidation Act 1997 (No. 39 of 1997) be amended in the manner and to the extent specified in the Act giving effect to this Resolution to provide that amounts to be paid on foot of jobseeker's pay-related benefit under the Social Welfare Acts are to be deemed to be earned income for the purpose of the Taxes Consolidation Act 1997 and subject to taxation in accordance with section 126 of that Act.

Question put and agreed to.
