Dear New Zealand Transport Agency,

I would like to know:

* What were the reasons that reminders were sent late
* For the past 5 years please provide a breakdown, by month, of the number of reminders sent each month and how many were late (sent after the registration had expired)

Yours faithfully,
Guy

Dear Guy

 

Are you able to please confirm if you are referring to the Renewal of
Motor Vehicle Licence (MR1) reminding people of their upcoming rego
expiry?

 

In order to further investigate the issue regarding you not receiving your
reminder on time, are you comfortable providing the plate number of your
vehicle for which you received a late reminder for? We can use the plate
number to check the exact file that plate number is in to find out what
has happened with the MR1 notice.

Yes, I am referring to Renewal of
Motor Vehicle Licence (MR1) reminding people of their upcoming rego
expiry.

Why remind people if their rego has expired?

I want to know why this happened. What was the fault. Importantly how many people got expensive tickets by relying on your software and processes; now and in the past.

How often this happens.

The plate number in this instance was NCP883.

Thank you
