The table sets out, by licensing authority, the number of vehicles under current vehicle licence at 31 December 2011 and 31 October 2012. Figures for the online motor tax system, which issues vehicle licences on a nationwide basis and which now accounts for just under half of all vehicle licences issued, are set out separately at the end of the table.
Licensing Authority | No of vehicles under current licence at 31st December 2011 | No of vehicles under current licence at 31st October 2012 |
