SGI ANNOUNCES AVAILABILITY OF AUTOPAY

Released on June 16, 1997

Clay Serby, minister responsible for SGI, today announced that

effective June 25, 1997, Saskatchewan vehicle owners can conveniently

pay their vehicle registration through AutoPay.



"With AutoPay, vehicle owners can choose to have monthly vehicle

registration payments withdrawn automatically from their chequing

account," Serby said. "All they have to do is stop by their licence

issuer's office at renewal time with a void cheque. It's that easy."



Any vehicle owner is eligible to register all types of vehicles

through AutoPay, except commercial vehicles that travel

interprovincially.



"AutoPay is easy and convenient, and allows vehicle owners flexibility

in budgeting their money," Serby said. "It's a payment option

customers have been asking for."



AutoPay is step three in a three-step process to improve customer

service at SGI. Step one, Daily Vehicle Expiry, was introduced last

year. Instead of all registrations expiring at the end of the month,

they now expire on pre-determined, specific dates throughout the

month. Customers avoid the inconvenience of long month-end lineups.



Step two, the Short-Term Vehicle Registration and Insurance

program, was implemented last fall. Vehicle owners can choose to

register their vehicles for periods ranging from 89 to 364 days.



"Customer service is number one at SGI," Serby said. "These

vehicle registration initiatives were undertaken to offer more

choices and greater convenience to Saskatchewan motorists."



For more details on AutoPay, Short-Term or Daily Vehicle Expiry,

customers are asked to see their licence issuer or call SGI at

1-800-667-9868, 775-6900 in Regina.
