QUESTIONS ON THE ANTI BIKE TAX IN VICTORIA

FOR  MONTHS the Independent Riders Group (IRG) has been trying to get some answers to questions about the Transport Accident Commission's (TAC) anti bike tax or "safety levy". Last week we lodged a Freedom of Information request on the information we seek.

It turned out Minister Donnellan's office was wrong to send us to the Finance Minister Robin Scott so this letter went back to Mr Donnellan who is the Minister responsible for TAC. The Chairman of the TAC Board then hand balled the questions to the TAC CEO in March. Six to eight weeks later (May 14) still no answers to our legitimate questions.

This is public information and it should be a simple accounting matter. The information is there and it's not secret so why the delaying tactics?
