At present a local authority may only issue a licence for a vehicle which is in its own county area. The possibility of permitting a licensing authority to issue a licence without such restriction is one of the issues being examined in the context of proposals for a revision and consolidation of motor tax law being developed in my Department at present. It is the intention in this regard that Heads of a Bill will be brought to Government in 2011.
