I am advised by the Revenue Commissioners that during 2007 a total of 5,901 tax concession applications were processed from people who had obtained a Primary Medical Certificate under the Disabled Drivers and Disabled Passengers [Tax Concessions] Regulations 1994. Of these, 5,896 were successful. Five applications were not granted due to the death of the qualifying person.
