PQ 115
115. Deputy Michael Lowry asked the Minister for Finance regarding Revenue duty and charges levied on motor dealers, traders, and registered vehicle importers during and after the Brexit period; as the Minister is aware Revenue demands specific documentation before granting clearance and releasing vehicles to their owners; if he is aware that Revenue is currently re-evaluating the duty and charges applied to vehicles imported into Ireland from the UK over the past three years; if he is also aware that Revenue is now imposing an additional 10% fee on these vehicles; the reason why Revenue introduced new guidelines and altered the requirements; if he concurs that the imposition of this additional 10% levy appears unjust, especially considering that motor dealers, traders, and registered vehicle importers had diligently adhered to Revenue's requirements at the time of import; furthermore, if he could explain the removal of the 2020/21 guidelines for compliance that were initially provided to motor dealers, traders, and registered vehicle importers on the Revenue website; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
