NSW senator Andrew Bragg is right to criticise the management of industry superannuation funds which are being used to splurge on political campaigns rather than sticking to investments to boost the long term financial welfare of all members. (Unions collect millions from industry super funds, 14/3). Perhaps their ideal that a Labor government would be best for the long-term prospects of their members is too broad an interpretation of their mission statement. Those involved in the debate would benefit from reading the front page of Monday’s Telegraph to get real ideas on how industry superannuation funds might better operate (Don’t let the dream die, 14/3). Investing in apartments for low cost housing (exclusively for members), would help solve the crisis in housing for our critical workers in Sydney’s billionaire suburbs.
