Federal Member for Lyne Dr David Gillespie said the Mobile Service Centre is a travelling outreach service that shortens the distance between rural and regional communities and government services.
“Desert Rose is a truck set up as an office, custom-built with the same technology as any other Service Centre that delivers Medicare or Centrelink payments and services, including access to self-service facilities.
“It is wheelchair accessible and has a soundproof room where staff can conduct hearing health checks,” Dr Gillespie said.
“A staff member from Australian Hearing will be on board both stops to offer free hearing checks and information, and a staff member from the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) will also be available to assist with general taxation enquiries.
“It’s exciting to have ATO staff on board to assist people with their tax affairs.”
