Why only farmers and tourist operators? What defines tools of the trade? What about all the other people who require a vehicle that falls into LCT but aren't in those sectors, isn't that quite harsh to them? Rather than these complex systems our politicians keep introducing to 'help out' it should be one system or none. (Personally I do not see any reason for paying LCT at all as it is just a double dip on tax)
