The Senate Standing Committee on Economics is made up of two Liberal Senators, two Labor Senators, a National's Senator and a Centre Alliance Senator.
Seeing as the Committee has recommended the Bill be passed, this means that the Coalition and the Labor party have teamed up to make sure this Bill gets through the Senate.
Published late last Friday afternoon, the Senate report does it best to suppress the arguments of those concerned about this Bill.Â
The Senate report attacks people who are concerned by stating, “hypothetical scenarios, such as a negative domestic interest rate environment coupled with a cashless society, and future choices the Parliament may or may not make, such as reducing the cash payment limit below the proposed legislated amount of $10,000.”
It even accuses anyone who raises those issues of promoting “conspiracy".
It is disappointing to see, once again, the major party alliance dismissing the valid concerns of everyday Australians and going so far as to insult and smear people who went to the effort of making a submission.
As it stands, One Nation is strongly opposed to the passage of this legislation in any form and will continue to work to ensure this terrible piece of legislation does not pass the Senate.
