I propose to take Questions Nos. 108, 116, 128, 149 and 260 together.

As I stated in a reply to a previous parliamentary question, the interdepartmental report of the review group on the disabled drivers and disabled passengers tax concessions scheme is under consideration in my Department. The report is a substantive one and any recommendations contained in this report need to be examined carefully. On completion of this process, I envisage that the report will be made available publicly.
