asked the Minister for Local Government whether he has received a copy of resolutions passed by the Irish Motor Agents' Association in regard to the necessity for a reform of the system of motor taxation; whether the resolutions have been considered by the Government; whether he proposes to adopt the suggestion for the appointment of a Committee to examine the subject, and, if so, whether he has yet come to a decision as to the names of the persons who are to form the Committee.
CEISTEANNA—QUESTIONS. ORAL ANSWERS. - MOTOR TAXATION—SUGGESTED APPOINTMENT OF COMMITTEE.
The resolutions referred to have been received and a reply was sent on the 25th instant to the Motor Agents' Association. As regards the latter portion of the question I would refer the Deputy to the reply of the Minister for Finance to a similar question to-day.
Mr. BYRNE
May I ask whether the Minister for Local Government or the Minister for Finance intends at any time to give consideration to the representations made?
The Advisory Board would be pleased to receive any recommendations at any time.
Mr. BYRNE
Is the Minister aware that recommendations have been brought before the Minister for Local Government and the Finance Department for some 12 months, and nothing further has been done?
I think we have given a very full answer to that question already.
