Just a small comment before I vote (and apologises for being MIA for a few days)

This bill gives a tax credit of 15% for people who purchase a travel pass. The simpler, less bureaucratic way would be to simply reduce the cost of purchasing a travel pass by 15%. Instead it stays the same, yet now we have the added costs of administering and running a small tax credit which in all will cost more to implement than just a simple flat cut would have. It's a convoluted piece of legislation.

For that reason and in part because the cut was not accordingly costed. I vote Nay
