121 Mr. Higgins (Dublin West) asked the Minister for the Environment and Local Government his views on whether in view of the potential of pedelecs to reduce traffic congestion and pollution, they should be exempt from road tax; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [27319/01]
I propose to take Questions Nos. 120 and 121 together.
