There is no direct evidence that Hungary has made losses over Volkswagen’s emission scandal, the Ministry of National Economy said on Tuesday after a question by opposition party Dialogue for Hungary (PM). It would be premature to guess if any tax revenue was lost from vehicles registered in Hungary, the ministry said. PM said on Monday that Minister of National Economy Mihály Varga should disclose the exact amount the scandal had cost the country. The ministry said results of a German investigation as well as that of the Hungarian Transport Authority would have to come in before any further steps can be taken. However, it said the vehicle industry in Hungary was growing and tax revenue was rising steadily, so there were no steps required by the government in this sector.
