Minister extends deadline for farming fuel support scheme

The Fuel Income Support Scheme payment will be issued as one lump-sum per applicant to cover a full five-month period, rather than monthly payments

The Fuel Income Support Scheme deadline has been extended to June 2.

The deadline for the ‘Fuel Income Support Scheme’ has been extended to midnight on Tuesday, June 2.

Originally set to close this week, May 27, minister for agriculture, Martin Heydon, announced the extensions due to the large volume of applications received by the department over the last few days.
