Hi Emma
In regards to the granting of a discount I would be cautious, as Robert has pointed out the Act stipulates prompt payment in full.
The concept is really good (in my view) because it creates a pseudo amnesty on all unpaid debts, but alas with the GVAL ratepayers rates may still increase by more than the 2.6% which I don’t think will provide the outcomes you are looking for.
This one of many examples of people thinking outside the box and challenging the legislation.
Regards,
Andrew
