PQ 112
106 Deputy John Lyons asked the Minister for Finance if his attention has been drawn to the current difficulties faced by licensed bus owners, specifically those who operate school transport; if he will consider designating this service as zero rate VAT as opposed to the current exempt status in view of the fact that this would put operators on a par with UK and Northern Ireland counterparts who are gradually entering the market here; failing that, if he will introduce a mechanism to replace the fuel rebate to school transport operators which was discontinued two years ago.
