In order to qualify for the Revenue Commissioners' Drivers and Passengers with Disabilities Tax Relief Scheme, an applicant must be permanently and severely disabled within the terms of the Disabled Drivers and Disabled Passengers (Tax Concessions) Regulations Act 1994 and be in possession of a Primary Medical Certificate. Applications for Primary Medical Certificates are processed through the Health Service Executive (HSE) Local Health Offices.

As the Deputy's question relates to service matters, I have arranged for the question to be referred to the HSE for direct reply to the Deputy.
