Original Note:
The "subsidies" referred to here are an exemption from the fuel excise tax. The fuel excise pays for public roads, so vehicles that are not driven on public roads, such as mining and farming vehicles, are exempt from the tax. https://www.aph.gov.au/About_Parliament/Parliamentary_departments/Parliamentary_Budget_Office/Publications/Budget_explainers/Fuel_taxation_in_Australia#:~:text=fuel%20tax%20system%3F-,Excise,cents%20per%20litre%20(CPL).
