New Policy Institute Australia research featured in The Age finds that billions of dollars in state government concessions and cost-of-living support are flowing to higher-income households. The article highlights PIA analysis showing that in Victoria, the wealthiest 20 per cent of households received more than $207 million from vehicle registration discounts, compared with $100 million for the lowest-income 20 per cent. The report calls for better-targeted support to ensure assistance reaches households that need it most.
