Motor Vehicle (Duties and Licences) Bill 2008: Committee and Remaining Stages
Paudie Coffey (Fine Gael)
With the ever increasing use of on-line registration and payment of taxes, this administration involves the click of a button and posting out a disc. The surcharge is excessive and although it is quite small, it matters to the people paying it because the reason they pay on a quarterly basis is that they cannot afford the full annual payment. Every euro counts in many family households and it is the small things that count. In future reviews I ask the Minister to address this issue in his discussions with Revenue.
