The introduction of stealth taxes is illustrated clearly by the increase in motor taxation which the Minister for Finance conveniently announced the day after the budget rather than on the day itself. We were told that extra money would be put into roads, but it has not materialised and there has been very little difference in the allocations to local authorities this year compared to last year, even allowing for the motor tax increase. I challenge the Minister to publish the sums received by local authorities in motor taxation to illustrate how little difference there is in the amounts they are receiving. The tax increase is being used to make up shortfalls in other areas.
