Fire Services Levy (FSL) and Insurance Discussion Paper

On 19 November 2009, the 2009 Victorian Bushfires Royal Commission released a discussion paper on insurance and the funding of fire services through the fire services levy to assist interested parties to comment on issues relevant to the Commission's Terms of Reference.

The paper has been developed for discussion purposes only and should not be assumed to represent the views of the Commissioners.


All responses to the discussion paper will be considered in the development of the Commission's final report due July 2010.


Those who have already made a submission to the Commission on insurance or the fire services levy need not respond as the information provided has already been reviewed by the Commission and will be further considered with other responses. However, previous submitters may raise additional issues if they wish.


Responses to the Fire Services Levy and Insurance Discussion Paper should be provided to the Commission by Monday, 21 December 2009. All responses must include a coversheet.


To facilitate responses, a response template has been prepared. Use of the template is optional.
