Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 22 February 2005
154 Mr. Timmins asked the Minister for Finance the position in relation to the case of a person (details supplied) in County Wicklow; if this will be dealt with as speedily as possible; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [5586/05]
View answerI have no direct responsibility for the day-to-day operation of the medical board of appeal for the disabled drivers and disabled passengers (tax concessions) scheme. However, my Department, together with the Department of Health and Children, is reconstituting the medical board of appeal for the scheme. Progress has been made and it is hoped that the new arrangements will be put in place shortly. I will arrange for the new secretary to the board, when in place, to contact the individual concerned in regard to his appeal.
