Vol. 243 No. 1

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Tourist Petrol Supplies.

64.

asked the Minister for Finance if he will consider issuing vouchers to foreign tourists which would entitle them to purchase a fixed quantity of petrol without payment of tax.

I am not prepared to introduce a concession for tourists on the lines suggested by the Deputy.

Would the Minister agree that this has proved a success in continental countries and it would be a great incentive here now that we have the car ferry services operating?

I have no doubt they do many things in continental countries which we would not be prepared to do here.

It is a good suggestion.
