Travel Concessions

These are available to those in receipt of War Disablement Pensions at 100% or more. Apparently there are some of you out there who have the 100% but who have not asked for help under the Travel Concession regulations. This is for travel around New Zealand and can include rail and coach services, and in some instances, where you have to travel out of a defined local area (which can be quite large) a mileage allowance towards your petrol costs if you use your own car or someone drives you. If you are one of those people please call War Pension Services on 0800 553 003, and the staff there will provide you with all the information that you need.
