12 Replacement of licences, labels, signs and licence number plates
If the Commission, of its own volition, changes the information contained on a licence, label, sign or licence number plate, it must issue a replacement licence, label, sign or licence number plate to the holder of the licence to which the changed information applies.
If a licence, or a label, sign or licence number plate issued in respect of a licence, is lost, stolen, damaged or destroyed, the holder of the licence may apply to the Commission for a replacement licence, label, sign or licence number plate, respectively.
An application made under subregulation (2) is to – be in an approved form; and include any evidence that the Commission requires, to satisfy the Commission of the loss, theft, damage or destruction; and be accompanied by the relevant fee specified in Schedule 3.
If the Commission receives an application under subregulation (2), the Commission may determine that the licence, label, sign or licence number plate that is the subject of the application is lost, stolen, damaged or destroyed.
If a determination is made under subregulation (4) – the licence, label, sign or licence number plate that is the subject of the application is deemed to be void; and the Commission may issue a replacement licence, label, sign or licence number plate, respectively.
A replacement licence number plate issued in accordance with subregulation (5)(b) may be issued – with the same number as the licence number plate being replaced; or with a different number from the licence number plate being replaced.
