Transported stock debated under travelling stock rates

At the Yass PP Board meeting Secretary Mr Hickey raised whether stock moved by transport along roads qualified for travelling stock charges. Mr Merriman argued the charge applies to travelling stock only, not to stock carried by transport, and moved that transported stock on the road should not be liable. Travelling stock charges aim to fund reserves and grass on stock routes.
