“The new scheme does not change the existing vehicle standards but improves the way vehicle modifications are checked and certified,” he said.
“Every modified vehicle owner has an obligation to ensure their vehicle complies in order to protect themselves, their passengers and other road users.”
“The VSCCS will replace the current Engineering Certification Scheme. The old scheme is outdated and paper based, leaving it open to fraudulent certifications and missing records,” he said.......

I received a info sheet from the MTA yesterday
that mirrors the posting link above
IT is a brief statement that covers a vast subject

Time will tell if this works or is just the start to phase out modified and custom vehicles and take away another of our choices
Big Brother is watching

Has anyone had experience with obtaining a VSCCS certificate?
I hear this is now a new requirement for NSW registration for all imported vehicles.

I don't know how they can call it a one stop shop, you also need a blue slip according to the RTA site.

Like every thing in life you have to make the best of any situation.
Work around what ever barriers the government put up.
Be skeptical of any one that has a vested interest.
When a politician gets involved its to promote their own agenda Remember if the mouth is moving they are lying.
Its about paper work and being able to have some one to blame when the feces hits the Fan.

Ps
think about this in the long term
quote Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
“If you treat an individual as he is, he will remain how he is. But if you treat him as if he were what he ought to be and could be, he will become what he ought to be and could be.”

After asking around, it's not required if the car is pre Aug 1972 and unmodified, then you only require a blue slip ... apparently.
