Danny Healy-Rae: First, in respect of the electric cars, and I have always said this, the general public are not fools and when the electric car is reliable, affordable and will be a realistic option, people will buy them.

Farmers have been notified by the local authorities that they are liable for the tax, even for land that is zoned as strategic residential in reserve. That is wrong. These are active farmers.
