The HSE is the responsible State body in relation to motor tax arrangements for any vehicles under its remit. Recently, the relevant policy unit in the Department of Housing, Planning, Community and Local Government requested further clarification in relation to whether HSE vehicles can continue to avail of the "state owned" exemption from motor tax. My Department has been liaising with the HSE on this matter and it is anticipated that the issue will be resolved shortly.
