Motor Vehicle (Duties and Licences) Bill 2013: Second Stage
11:40 am
Caít Keane (Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source
I welcome the Minister of State. Since he has outlined the Bill's purpose and the increases in the vehicle registration tax, VRT, I will not repeat them. No one likes increases, but we must consider the country's social needs at this time. The increases are expected to yield an additional ยค46 million each year. If the Opposition opposes this measure, where would it find that money?
