Vol. 506 No. 2
308 Mr. C. Lenihan asked the Minister for the Environment and Local Government if his attention has been drawn to the costs incurred by those over 70 years who apply for a renewal of their driving licence; and the plans, if any, he has to reduce this cost for this category of senior citizen. [15219/99]
Arising from a review of the overall driving licence fee arrangements by my Department, it is proposed to introduce revised licence fee arrangements which will be structured more favourably towards persons aged more than 70 years. Legislation is necessary to implement this change and will be introduced as soon as is practicable.
