I move:

That provision be made in the Act giving effect to this Resolution:- to close an evasion loophole whereby vehicles are declared off the road retrospectively, which is unverifiable, by providing for a system whereby vehicles must be declared off the road in advance for motor tax purposes,

- for the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport to be made a licensing authority and to provide that he or she continues to pay receipts from motor tax to the Local Government Fund,

- for the calculation of arrears of vehicle excise duty at 1/10th of the annual rate of duty per month of arrears, at the rate of duty applicable at the time of the making of an application for a vehicle licence, and

- for the charging, through secondary legislation, of an administration fee for the making of a declaration of non-use of a vehicle.
