Dog registration online

The City of Charles Sturt in South Australia is piloting a project enabling residents to pay dog registrations via the Internet. A Local Government Association of South Australia (LGASA) project and funded by the State Government, this project aims to encourage Councils to use their websites to conduct a range of customer transactions online.

Dog registration was chosen because it is universal to Local Government and a relatively simple and attractive area to conduct a pilot program. It is envisaged it will soon be possible to purchase a computer, modem and CD Rom for as little as $500 making IT transactions accessible to many more households.

It is intended that dog registration will be a mere precursor to the Online management of many more Government transactions. The State Government has provided half a million dollars to encourage organisations to establish websites.

Transition to a technology based system of payments is expected to reduce staff time and administration costs. It will also be a convenient method of payment for residents, saving them time and inconvenience, particularly in remote areas.
