    Hi Tracey,
    Interesting one. I haven’t seen this before but I think if we had the same situation I’d be going down the line that section 575(3)(a) allows pensioners to receive a pension rebate for each year that doesn’t exceed $250.00 & would give them the option to either receive a 50% rebate on each assessment or 100% on one assessment only.
    “(3) The total amount by which:
    (a) all ordinary rates and charges for domestic waste management services levied on any land for the same year are reduced is not to exceed $250”

    I’d probably start this commencing from the quarter that was reversed & not backdate.
    Thanks,
    Simone
