I call Deputy Troy.

Last week I attended a carers' forum representing carers from the region. They feel totally taken for granted and exploited with the lack of home help hours and respite weeks. The matter I want to raise today is the eligibility of people with a disability for the vehicle registration tax, VRT, for disabled drivers. The scheme is very restrictive and needs to be reformed. I refer also to the motorised transport grant, which the previous Government suspended to new applicants. We were told it would be reintroduced within a matter of months. It is now six or seven years since that grant was suspended. People with a disability cannot have access to public transport, particularly in rural Ireland. When will the motorised transport grant be reopened to new applicants?

A Cheann Comhairle, I did not get a reply to my question. I think the Taoiseach might have been distracted.

I think I answered Deputy Healy-Rae's question before the Minister, Deputy Bruton, had a chance to answer Deputy Brassil's question.

Deputy Bruton may answer Deputies Brassil's and Troy's questions together.

I would not like to have the two of us mixed up.

I was not aware of this gap to which the Deputy refers. I will follow up and revert to him.

And the motorised transport grant.

I am afraid I do not have the information to hand. I think it is a matter for the Minister for Finance. I will ask him to reply to the Deputy directly.
