I think they know this already.

they will make money by thousands of cars being sold mid month. so where it's already been paid for. the new owner will have to pay for a whole new month. so DVLA will have extra money from that.

the illegal cars coming out will have to buy petrol. so money will be made from that.

many more cars will be cloned.

it will be harder to buy and sell a car now.
before people would buy a car that had a few months tax left on it. reason was that they didn't want to register the car, bought it as a run around. or just spur of the moment purchase.
now they will think twice.

less crime for the police to do. so cutting the amount of police won't matter as much.
