Parking Levy
After a delay of a year, the government will shortly introduce its proposed €200 parking levy on spaces provided by employers, The Sunday Business Post reports.
The levy on employees who drive to work was first announced in October 2008 but remained wishful thinking for “logistical reasons”. The teething problems now appear to have been overcome and the scheme will be rolled out on a phased basis, beginning in Dublin city centre.
It will then be extended across the country in main urban centres.
