  • Toll Transitions Supports Relocating ADF Members Affected by Queensland Natural Disasters

    Article by Toll Transitions

    The recent floods and cyclone in Queensland have caused considerable disruption to Defence members and families at a time when many were relocating in the peak posting cycle. The major impact has been delayed deliveries of furniture and effects (F&E) resulting in families requiring temporary accommodation for extended periods.  Unfortunately there have also been a number of members whose furniture and effects were badly damaged or destroyed.

  • Floods affect Defence families across the country

    Update from Defence Housing Australia

    With parts of Queensland now in recovery mode and other areas of the country still in danger of flooding, Defence families across the country are feeling the impact.

    In Queensland we were fortunate to have only a small number of DHA properties inundated with substantial water damage, however a number of families in Rent Allowance accommodation and who own their own homes have also been affected; we are providing support and assistance to these families.

  • Support for Defence Families affected by Cyclone Yasi

    In the first instance, members and families should comply with the directions of local authorities on evacuation, and place the highest priority on their personal safety. Calls for Emergency Assistance should be directed to the emergency authorities, such as the SES on 132 500.

    For information in regards to Cyclone Preparation Advice phone Queensland SES on (07) 3109 0155 or visit their website.
