VFF seeks release of interim evaluation of Fire Service property levy model






THE Victorian Farmers Federation (VFF) has called on the State Government to release an interim paper outlining the government’s preferred model for funding the fire services along with impact analysis.


Peter Tuohey, VFF Farm Business and Regional Development Chair, said the government needs to give Victorians the opportunity to comment on the preferred model before legislation is released.

“Changing the funding model for fire services is a major reform and there should be an interim paper released with the preferred model,” Mr Tuohey said.
