Question NW3579 to the Minister of Transport
22 September 2015 - NW3579
De Freitas, Mr MS to ask the Minister of Transport
Why are applications of members of the public for vehicle license renewal refused if they have outstanding e-toll amounts?
Reply:
Currently there is no legal instrument that links the non-payment of tolls to the renewal of vehicle licences.
I am not aware of any instances where vehicle licenses have not been renewed for the non-payment of toll. I urge the honourable member to bring all such instances to the attention of the relevant authority.
However, as the honourable member is aware it is an offense as stated in Act No 7 of 1998 not to pay toll fees.
