Tamper Proof Disks

No not fighting the system John, just looking for sound advice. I don't want to end up in bother with that lit, but it is quite confusing. Considering the number of underlying illnesses I have, the  NTA. are way down the pecking order, when it comes to stressing me out, but the fukkers are still in the back of my mind all the same

What if no envelope arrives in Galway?

Nothing. They're not bothered but they have to satisfy the requirements of the legislation. If you have a car with dandelions fixed to the windows you are purporting to be driving a licensed taxi. If you don't have SPSV insurance in respect of that car it is not a licensed taxi - BTW, these are the rules "we" demanded - and you could be charged with driving without insurance - not to mention risk your car being confiscated if you don't have private motor tax. Hence NTA have to ensure you can't hold them liable because they never told you to remove the stickers.

Highly unlikely a Garda would bother their hole with all that?

Do you think the Discs and Envelopes will be recycled or will they be stored in a government vault somewhere by someone for something ?

[Rat Catcher]

Probably not, TOO... but if you hit someone the insurance firm may scrutinise any photos to ascertain if there's anything there to invalidate your policy... and then report you to An Garda Siochana for driving without insurance and/or motor tax.

Yet the insurance companies advice was only to break the link, the only reference to sticker removal was on a newsletter hardly anyone reads.

[Rat Catcher]

Some got electronic mails... without going back through the thread I think at least one concluded that his insurance company had, directly or indirectly, informed NTA that he had invalidated his SPSV vehicle licence. That done, NTA are quite correct and possibly legally obliged to issue a cease and desist demand in respect of any invalid licence discs being displayed on the vehicle in question.
