Future notifications of ESL rate changes
As you will be aware Revenue NSW changes the ESL rate from time to time, which means we may have to adjust the amount we collect on your clients' policies throughout the year. Previously, these rate changes have been communicated to you, via email. In future all ESL rate changes will be publicised on our website. The rate will also be displayed on all renewal schedules.
If you have any questions or require further information please contact your Account Manager.
