If so, did it start at the same time as in Great Britain - ie A=1963,
B=1964 etc?

Except only London used A.

Not exactly. IIRC Only Middlesex (this was before the GLC remember) and
Staffordshire used "A". London (as in the LCC) didn't use "A" in 1963.

A number of offices have used "A" since for re-registrations of vehicles
going back to 1957, again IIRC. There are some obvious examples in
re-registered early Routemasters (to bring this back onto topic for this
group).
