Today we announced our intention to become #netzero by 2035. We urge other organisations to set their own carbon reduction targets for the future of our community, State and planet. Thanks to our speakers and panellists for your valuable insights today.

A positive step as EFTPOS withdrawals drop to $250 a day at pokie venues. Mark Henley said, "We've tried for 20 years to limit the ability of gamblers to chase their losses with more & more money, because research shows it is a classic sign of addiction."

This bill is against the recommendations from the Banking Royal Commission & will not enhance economic activity. It will adversely affect small businesses as people will have less money to spend with them, and will harm vulnerable Australians who will lose valuable protections.

The Senate Economics Legislation Committee will soon vote on changes to the National Consumer Credit Protection (Supporting Economic Recovery) Bill 2020. We're asking them to oppose these, to help consumers avoid 'debt disaster' because of unaffordable & unsuitable lending.
