The Federal Government is trying to scrap safe lending laws.
These laws currently prevent lenders from selling unaffordable loans, saddling people with debt they will never be able to escape.
As consumer lawyers and financial counsellors, we know all too well the harm that reckless lending has had – and continues to have – on people across Australia.
We know the stress and anxiety it causes families, and we’ve heard the stories of hardship experienced by people who fall on hard times.
We cannot allow these laws pass and with them, a legacy of consumer harm and financial hardship. Join the campaign to save safe lending laws.
