Submission to the Review of the Financial System Dispute Resolution Framework (Interim Report)

Submission to: Attorney-General’s Department
Joint submission from Financial Rights Legal Centre, Consumer Action Law Centre and FCA setting out why the bankruptcy threshold should be increased to $50,000. It is currently $5,000. This means that people can unfairly lose their homes over very small debts and that bankruptcy is inappropriately used as a debt collection tool.

Submission to: Australian Banking Association
This submission is in response the Australian Banking Association’s (ABA) Consultation Paper: Use of credit cards for gambling transactions (Consultation Paper).
