Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 17 October 2006
288 Mr. Connaughton asked the Minister for Finance the position regarding an application under the disabled drivers and passengers tax relief scheme by a person (details supplied) in County Galway; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [33123/06]
View answerI am advised by the Revenue Commissioners that based on the information supplied they have been unable to trace any claim by the named person under the Disabled Drivers and the Disabled Passengers [Tax Concessions] Regulations 1994. A claim under the above regulations can only be considered by the Revenue Commissioners from a person who has qualified for a Primary Medical Certificate which is issued by the Senior Area Medical Officer of their local Health Service Executive administrative area. If the Primary Medical Certificate has been refused in this case, the named person may appeal the refusal to the Medical Board of Appeal, National Rehabilitation Hospital, Rochestown Avenue, Dún Laoghaire, Co. Dublin.
