Policy and legislation governing the collection and use of motor tax are matters for my colleague, the Minister for the Environment, Heritage and Local Government. As regards State grants, a total of €33.5 million was paid in 2007 to road authorities in County Mayo for improvement and maintenance of regional and local roads in the county. The National Roads Authority is responsible for expenditure on national roads in County Mayo.
