It was changed from the permit scheme to the current concessional rego system around 8 years ago. At that time we changed from the old Vintage plates to the current (smaller) 'H' plates.

One of the things with the system is that is still manual, in other words unlike regular rego it can't be renewed online etc.

Another issue is the most RTA staff & police do not how to administer it. Ask 6 different RTA staff the same question & you will get 6 totally different answers. If in doubt ask for their ruling in writing or check out the RTA website, It's not very difficult.
