Hello. I'm confused on how the WoF extensions work that were put in place on 10 April 2020 due to covid-19. Is it a blanket 6 months from 10 April, meaning all WoFs that expired after 1 January 2020 are now extended until 10 October 2020, or is it something else? Let's use an example of a vehicle with WoF that expired on 15 March 2020 - what is the new expiry date?

OK, it seems like I'm not the only one confused...
