The Department of Infrastructure has recently circulated the latest guidance material as the end of the transition from the Motor Vehicle Standards Act (MVSA) to the Road Vehicle Standards Act (RVSA) transition approached.
HVIA members are reminded that from 1 July vehicles will need to be loaded onto the Register of approved vehicles in order to be registered.
