Guide Aids Tasmanians in Managing Cost-of-Living Pressure

Jo Palmer, Minister for Community Services and Development

The Rockliff Liberal Government is committed to assisting Tasmanians with cost-of-living relief.

Minister for Community Services and Development, Jo Palmer, today launched the Concessions and Discounts Guide for 2023-24, outlining ways people can access targeted support.

"We recognise that increased cost-of-living pressures are stretching the budgets of many Tasmanians," Minister Palmer said.

"The Concessions and Discounts Tasmanian Government Guide 2023-24 offers more than 90 different types of concessions and savings for a range of essential services including local council rates, electricity, housing, health services, vehicle registration, driver licences and public transport.

"To help alleviate some financial stress, I encourage all Tasmanians who hold a concession card to head to the concessions website, or collect a hard copy, and take advantage of the concessions you are eligible for.

"Our Government will continue to deliver targeted support to Tasmanians and their families, at a time when they need it the most."

Free hard copies of the Guide are available from Service Tasmania centres, Libraries Tasmania, local councils, Neighbourhood Houses, Men's Sheds and various other Government offices, both State and Federal.

The Guide is also available online at www.concessions.tas.gov.au.
