For the final time in Australia, I caught up with Robbie Barwick from the Citizens Party. We looked at the progress towards the establishment of a Public Bank in the light of recent failures, and the inquiry into Regional Banking.
Importantly, there are just two more weeks to get your submission to the Inquiry. Have your say! and support the transformational policy.
Make a submission to regional bank closures inquiry
Submissions to the inquiry are due by 31 March. All communities, organisations, businesses, and individuals impacted by the banks’ war on cash are strongly urged to make a submission, including to support a government post office bank.
A submission can be a formal representation from an organisation, or as simple as a letter or email, which explains to the Committee your experience and views.
Elderly and vulnerable regional bank customers, who are disproportionately affected, are especially encouraged to hand-write or type physical letters and mail them to the Committee through the post.
Mail your submission to the Committee at this address:
