A specialist tradies group is describing changes to the Government's clean car scheme as another blow for the struggling sector.
The Transport Minister, Michael Wood, this morning announced a toughening of the scheme's rules and increasing the fees charged to buyers of new utes and trucks.
The scheme charges a fee for imported fossil fuel cars which is then used to subsidise electric vehicles.
The new maximum charge will be $6900.
The President of Specialist Trade Contractors Federation; Grant Price spoke with Charlotte Cook.
