asked the Minister for Local Government if he will exempt from road tax all motor cars designed for and used by invalids and physically handicapped people; or if he will make available a grant to such people to pay the tax.

It is not proposed to exempt such vehicles from payment of motor tax. I would point out that there is already in existence a concession rate of 5/- a year for vehicles not exceeding six cwt. in weight unladen, adapted and used for invalids.
I have no statutory authority to make grants of the nature envisaged in the last part of the question.
