About this plate
"[Paragraph 10(d) REPLACED by O.I.C. 2015/230]", the grammar as it now reads dates from 2015, and the replacement removed whatever fixed shape preceded it in favour of registrar discretion. Motor Vehicles Act s. 48 governs transfer of trailer plates between the owner's own trailers.
