Treasury Laws Amendment (Measures for Consultation) Bill 2021: Superannuation Information for Family Law Proceedings
Submission to: Treasury
Joint submission, led by Women’s Legal Service Victoria, supporting the passage of legislation that will allow information about superannuation assets to be provided directly to the Family Court by the ATO during property settlements. This will be of significant benefit to women leaving situations of financial abuse and domestic violence, where perpetrators actively seek to hide assets.

Financial Sector Reform Bill 2022 – Compensation Scheme of Last Resort and Financial Accountability Regime
Joint consumer group submission (led by Choice) about specific components of the Financial Sector Reform Bill. In relation to a compensation scheme of last resort, the submission recommends expanding the scope of the proposed scheme including managed investment schemes, funeral expenses policies and relevant court and tribunal decisions. The compensation cap for the CSLR needs to be the same at that for the Australian Financial Complaints Authority. In relation to the Financial Accountability Regime, the Bill needs to provide for civil penalties, the deferred remuneration obligations need to be strengthened, the scope of the regime should expand to include senior executives and managers and this group should also (as in the UK) be required to treat customers fairly.
