MTAA and AARA have responded to queries from independent automotive repair businesses that sought clarity on the Australian Government’s Product Stewardship for Oil Program (PSO) which is commonly referred to as the ‘Oil Levy’. Specifically, they are concerned about transparency of operation and how costs impact their businesses.
To give clarity, MTAA and ARAA developed the Oil Levy Information Brief that shows that the oil levy is imposed on oil producers and importers by the Australian Government and not on independent repair businesses.
