  1. P. McMAHON, Revenue Commissioner. EXPLANATORY NOTE. These Regulations make certain amendments to the Income Tax (Employments) Regulations, 1960, in relation to the deduction of tax under PAYE from the earnings of casual employees. The Regulations provide that a week's tax-free allowances will be allowed from the first day of the week and the tax for the week will be calculated cumulatively. This will to a large extent prevent overpayment of tax, and the consequent need for the employee to attend at the tax office to claim weekly refunds. The Regulations also provide—as an anti-evasion measure—for the provision of information by the employer to the tax office. The Regulations have effect as from 2 October,
