    Premier of Tasmania - Anniversary of June 2016 floods a time for reflection Search Home News About Cabinet Speeches Budget Contact Will Hodgman Premier of Tasmania 5 June 2017 Jeremy Rockliff, Minister for Primary Industries and Water Anniversary of June 2016 floods a time for reflection In marking the 12-month anniversary of last June’s devastating floods, it is a time to reflect on the tragic loss of life and the many families, farms and communities that were impacted. Once in a century floods swept across 20 of Tasmania’s 29 municipalities with enormous speed and causing catastrophic damage to farms and infrastructure and people’s livelihoods. It is difficult to adequately describe the heartache of missing family members, farmers losing stock or a family seeing their home go under water – it has a different impact on every individual. The community, including the Tasmanian Government, stood beside these families and communities as they rebuilt and we continue to help with rehabilitation grants, loans and financial advice. The total damage bill is estimated in excess of $180 million and my thanks go to the many organisations like the local councils, TFGA, Dairy Tas, Rural Business Tasmania, Rural Alive and Well, and DPIPWE who all worked magnificently together to help affected families and communities. The Tasmanian Government quickly responded with a series of Emergency Assistance Grants, Community and Primary Producer Clean-up Grants, funding to the Rural Relief Fund, established the Flood Recovery Taskforce, the Flood Recovery Loan Scheme and also successfully liaised with the Australian Government for the affected regions to be covered by the National Disaster Relief and Recovery Arrangement.

More than 200,000 Tasmanians are RACT members. Formed in 1923, RACT is an apolitical and independent transport, infrastructure, road safety, tourism and mobility advocate. It is committed to supporting and furthering the interests of Tasmanians and does this through a comprehensive program of consultation, education, awareness and public advocacy. RACT is represented in a number of stakeholder reference organisations in Tasmania and undertakes liaison with government and other groups. It also has three regional advocacy committees which are made up of local volunteers and other relevant stakeholders.
