A total of 14,114 COEs were available from February to April 2015.
The latest quota for the upcoming three-month period is a drop from the 17,511 that was available from February to April, which in turn had also seen a decrease from the 19,994 for the November 2020 to January 2021 period.
The Land Transport Authority (LTA) on Thursday (Apr 15) gave a breakdown of the COEs available for the May to July period.
