Motor Vehicle (Duties and Licences) Bill 2008: Committee and Remaining Stages
Paudie Coffey (Fine Gael)
I accept what the Minister has said. There is no going back on it but it does not make sense. Where a person buys a car in January 2008, and another person buys a similar car with the same CO2 emissions in July or August 2008, he is penalised to some degree because the new system is not retrospective to January 2008. I accept the Minister's position.
