Supplementary Submission to floods inquiry

Submission to: Senate Community Affairs Committee
We do not support the proposed expansion of the compulsory cashless debit card to some people on Centrelink payments in the Northern Territory, . We remain concerned that it deprives people of choice which negatively affects their wellbeing and financial capability.

This is a submission by the financial counselling sector to the Parliamentary inquiry into insurers’ responses to flood claims arising from the series of floods in NSW, Queensland and Victoria in 2022.
