My question is to the Treasurer. I refer the Treasurer to two of my constituents, Mr and Mrs Goldner, who have had their cash management account frozen following the government’s announcement of the bank deposit guarantee. Mr and Mrs Goldner had purchased a block of land on Hindmarsh Island and commenced building. They were due to pay the builder but cannot because their account has been frozen. What is the government doing to fix its policy and ensure that the Goldners and the almost 300,000 Australians who have had their funds frozen have access to their money?
