Vol. 70 No. 6

Written Answers. - Taxation and Registration of Motor Vehicles.

asked the Minister for Local Government and Public Health if he will state the total number of (a) vehicles taxed on horse-power and (b) commercial vehicles registered for the first time in the years 1927 to 1937 inclusive.

I presume "for the first time" refers to (a) as well as (b). The information is not available for the years 1927, 1928 and 1929. The statistics for these years do not show separately the number of vehicles registered for the first time. The numbers of vehicles registered for the first time in the years 1930 to 1937 are:—
