About Australia

Tasmanian exporters will experience the benefits of the Australian Government's extension of the Tasmanian Freight Equalisation Scheme (TFES) when it takes effect on 1 January 2016.

Senator Richard Colbeck said the Government's enhancement of the scheme will level the playing field and allow more Tasmanian businesses to participate in high value global markets.

"This is a transformative change for the Tasmanian economy. It will boost the competitiveness of Tasmanian businesses and provide a substantial incentive for local businesses to sell their products to broader markets.
