Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 9 March 2005
182 Mr. P. Breen asked the Minister for Finance the position regarding an appeal for the disabled drivers allowance for a person (details supplied) in County Clare; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [8123/05]
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 currently reconstituting the medical board of appeal for the scheme. Progress has been made, and it is expected 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.
