VAT on M50 toll would add insult to injury, says AA

The Automobile Association (AA) has today criticised plans to impose a 21% VAT rate to State-owned tolls at the West-Link Toll Bridge on the M50 and the Dublin Port Tunnel with effect from July 1.

According to the AA, the tax would mean that the toll for cars would raise form its current rate of €2.00, €2.50 & €3.00 (depending on whether you have a tag/account) up to €2.42, €3.02 & €3.63 respectively.
