The distribution of remaining license plates from 2013 is now being discussed by the Department of Transportation and the Land Transportation Office with its suppliers following the lifting of the Notice of Disallowance of the Commission on Audit (CoA) from them last month.
The transportation agency, in a statement, said that they are currently in talks with the suppliers of the 2013 license plates that were the subject of a Temporary Restraining Order from the Supreme Court and Notice of Disallowance (ND) from the Commission on Audit (CoA).
This was after the LTO received a resolution from CoA lifting the ND last July 17, six months after the SC lifted its TRO.
The meetings, LTO said, are being held to ensure that license plates from as far back as 2013 will be distributed to registered owners.
The pending 11 million plates will be distributed after the LTO submits its recommendation on the amended contract next week, Transportation Secretary Arthur Tugade said. (Alexandria San Juan)
