Exempt disabled people on attendance allowance from paying car tax.

Petition Details

Disabled people below pension age, in receipt of DLA or PIP can apply for full exemption or a 50% discount. Disabled pension age people on AA receive no discount/exemption. This in itself is ageist. Whether on DLA/PIP or Attendance Allowance, people should be treated equally & fairly.

Additional Information

By giving disabled pensioners on AA, discount/exemption for car tax, that money could go towards their heating or food bills. It is very unfair and ageist. I am not a pensioner however I see many struggling financially. Please help make it slightly easier for disabled pensioners on attendance allowance to afford to keep their car by treating them the same as disabled people under pension age. Disabled people should be treated equally regardless of age.
