Noel Ahern
Ceist:107 Mr. N. Ahern asked the Minister for Finance if there is any record or data as to whether additional taxi plates issued in the past six months since deregulation are being used full-time or part-time; if the records of the Revenue Commissioners confirm that all new plate holders are registered for tax purposes; and if he will make a statement on the matter in view of the assertion that many of the new plate holders who work on a part-time basis are not declaring an income from taxi work.
