Dear Mr H

 

I refer to your correspondence of 15 November 2019 sent to the Department
of the Prime Minister and Cabinet (the Department) (as set out below) –
our reference FOI/2019/359.

 

Given the subject matter of your email (i.e. collection of toll funds by
Revenue NSW and other states and territories), we consulted  the
Departmental line area responsible and the Department of Infrastructure,
Transport, Cities and Regional Development (Infrastructure).
Infrastructure provided the following general and background comments
only, which may be of interest to you:

 

It is our understanding that road tolls, like motor vehicle registration
and licencing is administered at the state/territory level.

 

The applicant may wish to contact the relevant transport department in the
state/territory they are located in for more information.

 

I have attached a list of Transport/Road Safety agencies in each state and
territory that may be of assistance.

 

The Department will take no further action in relation to this enquiry.

 

Regards
