Seniors urged to apply for concessions

30/6/01
Seniors Minister Sheila McHale today reminded seniors that new concessions saving seniors up to $400 a year go into effect tomorrow.
"People should be aware that they need to apply for these concessions," Ms McHale said.
The Gallop Government has introduced new concessions for Senior's Card holders on drivers' licences, motor vehicle licences and rebates on water and local government rates.
"The concessions will only apply from the date of receipt of your completed registration form with the relevant authorities," Ms McHale said.
She urged people to register if they have not already done so.
