Dutton promise on TFES timid step, not giant leap
It’s great that the freight scheme is finally on the Coalition’s mind after years of neglect. Any Tasmanian business will tell you this is a completely broken system sending businesses backwards.
The major parties need to commit to a giant leap forward for this scheme, not a timid step. We don’t need another review. I’ve put forward plenty of ways to fix the scheme, like including air freight for King Island and Flinders Island and making payments more simple via an annual standard rebate claim for regular users.
My Senate Inquiry gave Tassie businesses and producers a voice. After years of ignoring them, you’d think the least the major parties could do is commit to making real changes in the scheme.
