The State Government has announced a commitment of more than $5.5 billion in the 2018/19 State Budget to help Queenslanders’ household budgets.

 

Acting Premier and Treasurer Jackie Trad said the budget allocation will fund energy rebates and concessions for households along with 17 concessions listed on the smart savings website.  

 

Ms Trad said the financial concessions included textbook and resource allowances for secondary students and travel, as well as accommodation subsidies for apprentices and trainees.
