What Investments Does Your Politician Have?

from Auspol Explained · host David Cox

Does your Member or Senator own any investment properties or stocks? What banks are they with? Do they have any bonds or trusts? What assets and gifts do they have? And what about their spouse? Well, the register of interests places on the public record Members' interests which may conflict, or may be seen to conflict, with their public duty - so you can look all that information up yourself and find out if the financial interests of your elected representatives is of import to you, or just a passing curiosity. It may be useful to you, it may be inconsequential - but if you'd like to know then here's how you find it. Register of Members' Interests: https://www.aph.gov.au/senators_and_members/members/register Register of Senators' Interests: https://www.aph.gov.au/Parliamentary_Business/Committees/Senate/Senators_Interests/Senators_Interests_Register The State/Territory Parliaments also have them but it's not really easy to link them all so really you might need to put them into a search engine or look for them in the tabled papers section. Some Parliaments also put it all as one giant single PDF instead of individual MPs returns.Support the channel on patreon here: https://www.patreon.com/AuspolExplained Like Auspol Explained on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Auspol-Explained-107892180702388 Auspol Explained would like to acknowledge the Whadjuk Nyoongar people and their Elders as the owners and custodians of the Land that the episode was recorded and edited on.
