NSW Emergency Services Levy

July 2009 - A new levy was introduced at the NSW Government Mini-Budget to fund the NSW State Emergency Service (SES) through the existing statutory contributions framework.
The new provisions are to be supported by back office reforms across the SES, the NSW Rural Fire Service and NSW Fire Brigades.

The proposed SES levy will be treated in the same manner as the current fire service levy (FSL) so the provisions relating to GST and Stamp Duty will remain the same.
