Cost of Living Reports
NTCOSS produces a biannual Cost of Living report to track changes and trends to the cost of living in the Northern Territory.
These reports are used to guide policy development at local and government levels, and for NTCOSS, at a territory and federal level, to advocate for continued and improved consideration and support for those on the lowest incomes.
