Rising interest rates mean people all over Australia are struggling with cost of living pressures.
Itβs why delivering cost of living relief is our top priority.
Here are some of the things we're doing to help Western Australians with the cost of living
Every Western Australian household will recieve at least $700 this year in power bill relief.
This takes the total power bill assistance provided over recent years to at least $2,100.
We're also providing additional support for those who need it most - with around 300,000 households eligible for Energy Assistance Payments, including pensioners, veterans and Health Care Card holders.
Weβve capped public transport fares, so no one in the Perth metro area will have to pay more than a 2-zone fare - no matter where they travel.
Weβve also made public transport free for students going to and from school - and free for everyone on Sundays.
We've made 130 TAFE courses free across a range of key industries, so more West Aussies can access world-class training.
In addition to the Fee Free courses there are over 160 high priority courses that have had their course fees reduced by up to 72 percent through our Lower Fees, Local Skills initiatives.
