DRIVER AND VEHICLE LICENSING

113 Dr McFETRIDGE (Morphett) (31 July 2007). Have identified areas for improvements of Driver and Vehicle Licensing operations in 2006-07 been implemented?

The Hon. P.F. CONLON (Elder—Minister for Transport, Minister for Infrastructure, Minister for Energy): I provide the following information:

The Department for Transport, Energy and Infrastructure introduced a new EzyPlates web site that has resulted in a 40 per cent increase in special plate sales over the internet. Overall Driver and Vehicle Licensing transaction volumes through the Internet have also grown by 15 per cent during the year.

The TRUMPS registration and licensing system was implemented in September 2007.

The expansion of on-line and electronic delivery of services, using TRUMPS, will now be progressed.
