Financial Resolution No. 14: EXCISE — Mechanically Propelled Vehicles
12:00 pm
Tommy Broughan (Dublin North East, Labour)
In September, the number fell by 40%. The Minister will attain some of his carbon emission targets by plunging the country into a total recession. We are heading into a full recession, to put the Government's failure in context. I support cycling and many Members of the House spent a large part of their lives cycling. In the broader context, however, the Minister has failed in his mission by slashing public transport.
