I am advised by the Revenue Commissioners that a Letter of Authorisation issued to the person (details supplied) on 21 April 2009. This authorises the registration of a vehicle for use by a disabled person/passenger without payment of Vehicle Registration Tax. No claim for relief in respect of a vehicle purchased and converted for use by a disabled person or passenger has been received to date in this case.

The Authorisation would have been valid for 6 months and consequently would now be out of date. The application form (DDI) and Letter of Authorisation would now need to be returned to the Office of the Revenue Commissioners, Central Repayments Office, Freepost, M: TEK II Building, Armagh Road, Monaghan so that it can be re-issued for a further 6 months.
