Michael McGrath (FF), Cork South-Central

I thank the Deputy. It has been a messy period for the motor sector and its trade with the North and Great Britain because of Brexit. When one considers what has transpired since Brexit, including the unilateral changes that were made in January 2021 and the fact that Revenue had to update its guidance in response to the withdrawal agreement, the Northern Ireland protocol and a new scheme from the UK that was introduced last week, there have been too many changes and we need a period of certainty. I will engage with the Revenue Commissioners on the specific issues the Deputy has raised to see if we need to consider any changes.
