If you are struggling to pay ACT traffic, parking and traffic camera infringements, you may be eligible to complete a community work or social development program, which can result in the amount of infringement debt owed being reduced.

 

Participants, approved for a WDP with Access Canberra, can register to attend Care's Budgeting for Life workshop. Each workshop session runs 2 hours in duration which contributes to reducing your infringement fine by $100. 

 

Workshop sessions are held throughout the year, see below for upcoming dates. To attend you must first be approved by Access Canberra before undertaking any of the workshop sessions for credit to be applied to your fines. 

 

Fines that are eligible include:

• ​Traffic fines

• Parking fines

• Traffic camera infringement notices 

​

Fines NOT eligible include: 

• Parking fines issued by Australian National University or the National Capital Authority

• Court fees

Please note, we no longer offer this program for anyone with NSW fines. For information about providers offering Work and Development Orders in NSW visit Services NSW.
