- The High Representative is pleased to announce that
the registration process and issuance of the new license plates will begin on
2 February 1998.
- The Parties, the Council of Ministers of BiH, and the
Governments of both Entities, have signed the Memorandum of Understanding and
by doing so have met the deadline set by the PIC at the Bonn conference. The
signing of the Memorandum of Understanding will allow the immediate
implementation of Annex I (Regulation on Motor Vehicle and License Plates) and
Annex II (Instructions on the Implementation of the Regulation on Motor
Vehicle Registration and License Plates).
- The new license plates will not identify vehicles by
district of origin. Every vehicle in BiH will have a license plate in the same
format. Numbers will be issued at random by computer and held centrally.
- This is another successful step towards a return to
normality in BiH. With these new plates, freedom of movement will become
easier and safer, helping to increase peoples confidence in the peace process
and allowing them to turn their backs on the politics of nationalism and
hatred.
- The presentation of the new license plate will take place on Monday, 2 February 1998, at 12.00 p.m. in various places across BiH. Press events have been set up for Sarajevo, in front of the Sarajevo Canton Ministry of Interior and for Banja Luka, outside the Presidential Palace. In addition, press opportunities will be available in Bijeljina, at the RS MUP HQ and in Travnik, at the Central Bosnia Cantonal Ministry of Interior.
