Vol. 222 No. 12

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Cross Border Traffic.

7.

asked the Minister for Finance if he will abolish the pass-book system for motor vehicles at land frontier posts.

I would refer the Deputy to my reply to a question of the 27th April when I indicated that it is not yet opportune to abolish the stamping of motorists' pass books. However, the Revenue Commissioners in consultation with the British customs authorities are examining the feasibility of allowing certain modifications of the present formalities to ease the position of persons resident close to the Border who make frequent crossings for business or other essential purposes.
