I move:

That the House:

(1)

recognises the heightened importance of financial literacy and financial counselling given the global economic recession and its impact on the Australian economy;

(2)

supports the actions the Government has taken to improve financial literacy and provide additional financial counselling services for people struggling to make ends meet; and

(3)

calls on Australian banks and financial institutions to assist Australian families by providing additional support for financial literacy programs and financial counselling.
