- Will the Government consider introducing on the spot licences from Service
NSW Centres?
- If not, why not?
- When was the centralised licence printing location first established?
- How many licences have had to be reprinted due to loss in the mail since
the inception of the centralised licence printing?

Answer -

- At Service NSW customers are enjoying quicker service and low waiting
times. Part of this is due to expanding the centralised printing model which
enables a faster service for customers, while reducing the cost to taxpayers.
Service NSW is exploring options for a central pick up location for customers
that may require a card in urgent circumstances.
- Photo cards – such as driver licences – have been centrally
printed in New South Wales for more than a decade for smaller motor registries
or as back up for larger registries. This is in line with other states such as
Victoria, South Australia, Queensland, Western Australia and Tasmania as well
as the private sector which has been mailing out bank cards for years.
- I am advised analysis carried out in July 2015 based on two years of data
indicated the rate of 'not received' cards was approximately 0.5 per
cent.
