The first of 24,000 bicycle badges to be used next year have arrived and 58,000 more are on the way, a source at the Inland Revenue Department has said.
It was disclosed that the Government had imported 68,000 ordinary licences to be sold at $2 each to the general public.
The badges are of enamel and have a green background with red letters.
There are 14,000 school licenses which are painted with a light blue background and carrying red letters
and figures.
These will be sold at 25 cents each.
There are 600 free licenses to be used by Government employees.
They carry a yellow background with red writing and letters.
It is expected that the last shipment of badges will arrive in time for sale during the first week in
January.
