In 2014, the Liberals tried to cut the indexation arrangement for every one of Queensland’s 812,000 pensioners. If the Liberals are re-elected, Queensland pensioners will lose up to $1,600 from the abolition of the Pensioner Education Supplement and $208 from the abolition of the Education Entry Payment.
