Hot Water System Rebates

Federal Rebates

The Labour government has abruptly ended the renewable energy bonus scheme 4 months early. Liberal Party Leader Tony Abbott will introduce a pirvate members bill into parliament to reinstate the axed rebate to 30 June 2012.  This will be annouced in mid March if successful.
