Question 114: To ask the Minister for the Environment, Heritage and Local Government if his attention has been drawn to the fact that persons who bought hybrid cars prior to July 2007 when the new regime of rating cars came in are left in a position where not only have they paid more for their cars but face a continuing penalty in having to pay motor tax at a higher rate; the steps he will take to ensure that such cars will be eligible for the same concession on motor tax as any other car with similar environmental features; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

I refer to the reply to Question No. 334 of 5 May 2010, which outlines the position in relation to the new motor tax and VRT systems applying from 1 July 2008.
