A review of the Fire Services Levy conducted by the Department of Treasury and Finance in 2003 found that, along with significant annual funding from the Victorian State Budget and Melbourne‐based councils, the current model was the best way to fund Victoria’s fire services. However, it is now appropriate to review the model again given that the Victorian Government has committed to reconsidering all aspects of our State’s ability to prepare for and respond to major bushfires.

This Green Paper has been designed to help Victorians establish the best way to fund Victoria’s fire services and to determine whether an alternative model would deliver adequate funding in a more equitable way.

VFBV is looking to provide advice and guidance to Government on its various levy recommendations. Members are encouraged to discuss the paper through your Region Council, each of which will be submitting a response on behalf of each Region. However, you can also make an individual submission via this page.
