I refer to the Road Traffic (No. 3) Bill. In this new legislation the deadline for declaring off-road used vehicles is the end of this week, which is causing enormous trouble. I compliment the staff of local authorities and the tax office who are trying to deal with this matter. I appeal to the Ministers for the Environment, Heritage and Local Government and Transport, Tourism and Sport to give an extension that will allow people to be compliant. There was enough information but, as usual, the Bill was rushed through the House.
