Until this matter is resolved, Centres need to be aware of what has happened to ensure that they are not affected.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>By way of background, as you know, in NSW vehicles (including trailers) must be registered in the name of a person or a company. In turn, while RDA (NSW) is a company and all of RDA (NSW) Centres are part of the company which is RDA (NSW), Centres are not, themselves, companies. This means that vehicles and trailers which are owned by Centres need to be registered in the name of RDA (NSW), even though the contact/address details should be those of the Centre (with insurance also being taken out in the name of the Centre which owns the item).<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Based on information we have received, it appears that when a Centre acquired a trailer late last year and registered it, as required, in the name of RDA (NSW), RMS may have altered also the address/contact details for some vehicles and trailers owned by other Centres to the address of that Centre. As yet, we have not been able to confirm the extent of the problem, nor do we know how many Centres may have been affected.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Until this issue is sorted out, could all Centres which have/had vehicle or trailer registration renewals falling due since mid-November 2018 please check to ensure that your Centre has received the registration renewal documents. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>If your Centre has not received the documents, could you please make sure that you contact your local RMS to check the address that they have for your vehicle or trailer. You will need to have the registration details when contacting RMS.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>To be on the safe side, it is advisable to continue to monitor the registration renewal dates for any vehicles and trailers to make sure that you receive the next renewal notice. Alternatively, you may find it better if your Centre checks to make sure that RMS has the correct contact and address details for your Centre’s vehicles and/or trailers.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Hopefully, not many Centres are affected and that we can have this issue fixed quickly.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Please let me know if you have any problems in relation to this issue.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Regards,<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D;mso-fareast-language:EN-AU'>Joseph Orland<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D;mso-fareast-language:EN-AU'>Honorary Director, Finance Officer & Company Secretary<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial Rounded MT Bold",sans-serif;color:#1F497D;mso-fareast-language:EN-AU'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial Rounded MT Bold",sans-serif;color:#1F497D;mso-fareast-language:EN-AU'>Riding for the Disabled Association (NSW)<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D;mso-fareast-language:EN-AU'>Quad 1, Level 2, 8 Parkview Drive, Sydney Olympic Park, NSW<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D;mso-fareast-language:EN-AU'>(PO Box 710 Sydney Markets NSW 2129)<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D;mso-fareast-language:EN-AU'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='color:#1F497D;mso-fareast-language:EN-AU'>Ph</span></b><span style='color:#1F497D;mso-fareast-language:EN-AU'>: (02) 8736 1256 <b>Mob:</b> 0407 004 019<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D;mso-fareast-language:EN-AU'>Email: <u><a href="mailto:stateoffice@rdansw.org.au"><span style='color:#1F497D'>joseph.orland@rdansw.org.au</span></a><o:p></o:p></u></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D;mso-fareast-language:EN-AU'>Web: <u><a href="http://www.rdansw.org.au/"><span style='color:#1F497D'>www.rdansw.org.au</span></a></u><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#1F497D;mso-fareast-language:EN-AU'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial Rounded MT Bold",sans-serif;color:#1F497D;mso-fareast-language:EN-AU'>"Riding Develops Abilities"<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D;mso-fareast-language:EN-AU'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D;mso-fareast-language:EN-AU'> <img border=0 width=79 height=57 id="Picture_x0020_1" src="cid:image001.png@01D4AD22.E738F530" alt="cid:image001.png@01CBDCAA.ABB8D800"> <img border=0 width=60 height=60 id="Picture_x0020_2" src="cid:image002.jpg@01D4AD22.E738F530" alt="ACNC-Registered-Charity-Logo - small"><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><i><span style='font-size:10.0pt;color:red;mso-fareast-language:EN-AU'>Donations of $2.00 or more are tax deductible<o:p></o:p></span></i></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='mso-fareast-language:EN-AU'><img border=0 width=306 height=58 id="Picture_x0020_3" src="cid:image004.jpg@01D4AD24.6617A300" alt="SWA2018emailsignoffWinner - reduced"><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='mso-fareast-language:EN-AU'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p></div></body></html>
