Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 13 December 2016
174. Deputy Paul Kehoe asked the Minister for Finance further to the reply to Parliamentary Question No. 208 of 1 December 2016, if he will direct the Revenue Commissioners to locate and forward a primary medical certificate in respect of a person (details supplied) in view of the circumstances outlined; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [39977/16]
Amharc ar fhreagraI have no role in directing Revenue in the manner suggested by the Deputy. I am advised by Revenue that the person concerned submitted an application for tax relief under the Drivers/Passengers with Disabilities Scheme on 24th October 2016. A Primary Medical Certificate, which is a matter for the HSE to provide, is required in support of the application and the person concerned has been advised of this on two separate occasions by Revenue.
