Superannuation access debate sparks political clash

from 7News Just In · host LiSTNR

Federal Treasurer Jim Chalmers has accused One Nation and the Coalition of threatening Australia's $4.4 trillion superannuation system after Pauline Hanson proposed allowing Australians to access their super early to pay down mortgages. The proposal has sparked debate about whether the compulsory superannuation guarantee should remain intact or if Australians should have greater access to their own retirement savings. A Resolve Political Monitor survey reveals 60% of Australians support house prices falling at least somewhat to help first home buyers enter the market.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
