LAHORE:
With the Provincial Motor Vehicles Ordinance (Amendment) Bill of 2015, the Excise and Taxation Department and the Special Monitoring Unit (SMU) have started consulting vendors to finalise designs of their new customised registration number plates, according to a private media outlet.
The department will seek proposals for manufacture of number plates once design details are finalised.
The amendment approved by the Punjab Assembly on June 11 allows vehicle owners to get customised and specialty number plates at a premium rate. The proposed plates can be scanned using auto number plate recognition (ANPR) cameras. Specialty plates includes following themes: breast cancer awareness, counter terrorism, cultural diversity in Pakistan, awareness of disabilities, culture of Punjab, Worldwide Fund for Nature, importance of education and architecture in Pakistan and Punjab and historic sites.
