We have until 18 December to flood the Regional Banking Taskforce with submissions calling for a postal bank!

It is imperative that we get the attention of the Regional Banking Taskforce, and force them to recognise that Australians want solutions, not platitudes. That’s why the Citizens Party is calling on everyone who supports the postal bank policy to make a quick submission to the taskforce by the 18 December deadline and insist they support the postal bank option. The goal is to overwhelm this taskforce with calls for a postal bank. No exceptions—they need to hear from YOU!
