SASKATCHEWAN MOVES TO A SINGLE PLATE ON JUNE 30TH

Released on June 28, 2004

Saskatchewan's new, single licence plate system will take effect on June 30th.

"Because the legislative and administrative changes required were completed faster than expected, the single plate system is being introduced a month earlier than previously announced," Minister responsible for SGI Maynard Sonntag said.

Motor licence issuers, auto dealerships and law enforcement are all being notified of the change.

Starting June 30th, SGI will issue a single plate on transactions requiring a new plate. On existing registrations, customers will have the choice to remove their existing front plate.

Alberta, Quebec, Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island and the three territories use single licence plates.

The change to a single plate will save about $370,000 a year, which will help SGI maintain among the lowest auto insurance rates in the country.
