And yet the industry still pays full tote odds via the fuel levy on avgas.

Fuel levy goes to CASA not Airservices

This the same Airservices cutting down on our Air Services and crowing about being profitable and paying the government a dividend?

They are required by law to pay a dividend. Airservices Act 1995. If they don't make a profit there is no dividend & Minister gets cross!
46 Payments of dividends by AA to the Commonwealth
(1) Within 4 months after the end of each financial year, the Board must recommend to the Minister in writing that AA:
(a) pay a dividend of a specified amount to the Commonwealth, in relation to AA’s operations in the financial year; or
(b) not pay any dividend to the Commonwealth for the financial year.

Will the Minister be cross when an Aircraft goes missing and no one knows until it's far too late and people start asking hard questions about why it happened?

Why on earth do "Govt Business Enterprises" have to make a profit and pay a dividend?
If they don't make a profit to pay a dividend, does ASA borrow the money to pay the required dividend as happened in Qld with the power stations?

In New Zealand there is a small charge to lodge a VFR Sar time plan.
In Australia I presume that cost is covered by IFR pilots.

The cost of only one search for a missing un-notified VFR pilot vs making the process free for them to use so you at least have some idea where to look. I know what I'd rather...
