IFP Chief Whip in the KZN Legislature Blessed Gwala said they are concerned with how the department handled the consultation process.

“The department said it would issue a Gazette for public comment. We believe this is merely to rubber-stamp the process,” said Gwala.
“It is apparent that the department has already decided to implement this new number plate system without considering people’s concerns or the financial implication this change might have for car owners.”
