Secure PL8

Secure PL8 is a joint initiative by WA Police and the City of Kwinana, supported by Neighbourhood Watch. It provides complimentary anti-theft screws and access to tools, helping the community make their number plates harder to steal and use illegally.

Stolen number plates can be a major inconvenience. Beyond the risk of your plates being used for criminal activity, replacing them also involves paperwork and potential fees. Lost or stolen state, district, or seasonal licence plates cannot be remade.

See when the next round of Secure PL8 starts

Community Safety Pack 

The City’s Community Safety Packs are available from the Administration Building during opening hours or see our Community Safety Officer at upcoming City events.
