Essential Services
This campaign is focused on maintaining access to high-quality essential services at a reasonable price.
The issue
The cost of essential goods and services is putting pressure on household budgets and contributing to higher inflation.
What we're calling for
We are calling for government to ensure that essential goods and services are reasonably priced and that adequate concessions apply for those with limited means.
The benefits
Keeping the cost of essential services will ensure that households, both young and old, can maintain a decent standard of living.
