TO SAVE OUR QUAD BIKES.
LEGISLATION OUTCOMES AND AFFECTS ON THE ECONOMY
From the FARMERS PERSPECTIVE:
- They will have higher operator expenses.
- They will have lower productivity and efficiency.
- They will not be as competitive on the global market against their farming counterparts overseas.
- The quad bike is by far the best machine for much of rural Australia because of its size and how manoeuvrable it is with cattle and in wet or tight scrub conditions.
- The quad bike is easy to transport where as the SSV buggies need a car trailer.
- Due to people not wearing seat belts in buggies quad bikes are 500% safer.
- They may have to travel further to get there most versatile and used machinery serviced due to closure of motorcycle businesses.
See the Save the Quad Bike in Australia website to see the thousands of comments.
From the MOTORCYCLE DEALERS PERSPECTIVE:
- They are going to lose in many cases up to 40 - 50% of their turnover which will make the business unviable.
- There could be many Agriculture service providers as well as motorcycle shops having to close the doors.
- There undoubtedly will be a sharp rise in unemployment in this sector and all sectors that are affected by this legislation from manufacturers to accessory and freight companies.
From the GOVERNMENTS PERSPECTIVE:
- They have not factored in that they will lose import tariffs on over 11,000 units per year.
- They will lose GST on the sale of over 11,000 quad bikes annually.
- They will lose company taxes paid by hundreds of motorcycle shops in Australia.
- They will see massive unemployment from the motorcycle industry.
- They will also lose the same taxes and see the same unemployment in all the ancillary industries all over Australia from the manufacturers and their warehouses, to the freight companies and accessory companies.
- They will be putting themselves in a situation to have a class action brought about from all of the affected people above that could easily equal the NORTHERN TERRITORY CATTLE EXPORT LEGISLATION.
- They are handing the Quad Bike market in Australia over to the CHINESE AND ASIAN COUNTRIES.
AND WHO PAYS FOR ALL THIS, THE TAX PAYER IN AUSTRALIA.
