About this plate
QUEENSLAND'S CURRENT GENERAL ISSUE, WITH ITS TWO CLAIMS GRADED SEPARATELY. THE FORMAT IS AUTHORITY-SOURCED: a serving Minister described it in a dated government media statement, with a worked example, two years before it entered issue. Consistent is not the same as sourced, and the file says so.

  2. reg 2021 s 117: the chief executive assigns the registration number and issues one or two plates, the grammar is nowhere in the instrument, which is the negative half of the sourcing story https://www.legislation.qld.gov.au/view/whole/html/inforce/current/sl-2021-0113
