Should it be necessary, the Minister for Finance has indicated that he is, of course, willing to consider a legislative amendment to address the issue raised by recent ombudsman decisions, if that is possible. In that regard, the Minister has asked the Department of Finance to engage as a matter of priority with the ombudsman and Central Bank on the issues raised and to obtain the necessary legal advice from the Attorney General's office. This matter is being actively pursued in as speedy and thorough a manner as possible. I would absolutely appreciate the Senator's engagement in ensuring this is resolved as soon as possible.
