I move amendment No. 156:

In page 66, between lines 2 and 3, to insert the following:
“PART 6

REPORTS
55. The Minister shall, within 3 months of the passing of this Act, prepare and lay before the Oireachtas a report on the taxation measures (included accelerated capital allowances)which can be used to support a programme to secure an update in the national HGV fleet to Euro VI standards and above.”.

Yesterday, we inadvertently discussed amendment No. 156 when it was in fact amendment No. 139 and I ask the Minister to reaffirm what he said about amendment No. 156 and a possible accelerated capital allowances scheme. I also propose to withdraw this amendment and resubmit on Report Stage.
