Thank you. At the FPT table, it’s more high level. Certainly at the officials’ level, discussion is continuing on regulations and how we can best serve the people of the Northwest Territories and companies that are doing business here in the NWT.
Getting back to the issue of licence plates on the front of vehicles on commercial vehicles over 4,500 kilograms, it has always been the practice and the law here in the Northwest Territories that plates be in the front so that officers don’t have to go underneath the trailer to see what the plate is. That’s always been the practice and we did take a look at what it would cost to have plates on the front and the back. We just felt that it was too big of a
task and too expensive to go through that process. So again, for commercial vehicles over 4,500 kilograms, plates are required to be at the front of the vehicle.
Also, I should mention, now that we’ve got the tolling system in place at the Deh Cho Bridge it’s very important that the plate in the front is visible and able to be taken a photo of by the camera equipment. Thank you.
