We understand so many Australians have no choice but to rely on petrol, which is why we are asking Australians to use only what they need. As well as reducing the cost of fuel, our government is also reducing the heavy vehicle road user charge to zero for three months to help truckies continue their vital work for our nation, and we've introduced laws to make sure companies pay truckies fairly when fuel prices spike.
The Treasurer and the Minister for Small Business today announced the ATO will provide temporary relief for businesses unable to meet their tax obligations due to fuel supply issues, where appropriate. We will help small business access easier and faster credit by extending the small business responsible lending obligation exemption for a further 10 years. We have acted early and we will continue to act to support Australians through this challenging period.
