Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 9 July 2013
400. Deputy Simon Harris asked the Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government the circumstances (details supplied) where the motor tax liability based on CO2 emissions can be reviewed; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [33472/13]
View answerAn emissions-based motor tax system was introduced for private vehicles registered from 1 July 2008. Private vehicles registered before that date pay motor tax on the basis of engine capacity. I have no plans at present to review the basis of taxation for either category of vehicle.
