I hope we get an opportunity later to speak on the substantive amendments that would make a difference in the midlands. I will not go over the carbon tax because we discussed it at length on Committee Stage. I have a specific question for the Minister. The bands used here are related to the bands for vehicle registration tax, VRT. There are 11 bands in place for VRT at present and with budget 2021 this is changing to 20 bands. On budget day we were promised that the Revenue Commissioners would publish the list of the new 20 VRT rates quite soon. That was two months ago. Those 20 bands have yet to be published and there is huge confusion. Will the Minister make available those 20 bands for VRT and have them published immediately to provide clarification on this?
