MEMBERS STATEMENT

‘FINANCIAL SAFETY WORKSHOP’.

Wednesday, 1 April 2026.

Mr NEWBURY (Brighton) (10:43):

The Smith Family recently held a workshop in Brighton to provide practical education about key financial safety topics.

Partnering with ANZ, it was the fifth workshop they have delivered to the Australian community.

In 2025 there were reported losses of $334 million to scams across Australians, with over 200,000 scams reported.

Anyone can be scammed.

Thank you to the organisations for running the workshop.
