 Natalie HUTCHINS (Sydenham – Minister for Education, Minister for Women) (09:49): As the cost-of-living pressure bites, my office has seen a huge uptake of applications for the Andrews Labor government’s $250 power bonus. Just this week my office helped a resident, Boris, to apply for a solar panel rebate. His household is now on track to save on energy bills and contribute to a renewable future. Boris was extremely happy that he had this opportunity to make his home based on renewable energies. We will continue to support households doing it tough, and I want to thank all of my staff for their work in processing hundreds of $250 power saving bonus applications.
