Are you a financial counsellor working with clients who are experiencing hardship due to compensation preclusion periods implemented by Centrelink? We are inviting you to share your professional expertise and insight as part of our consultation group.
At SSRV, our lawyers often see clients in difficult financial circumstances who want to reduce their compensation preclusion periods and return to receiving Centrelink payments.
Often, these clients have spent the entirety of their compensation lump sum and have no sources of income.
SSRV is interested in what might be done to respond to the issues that arise with CPPs, and we are interested in your expert opinion as a Victorian financial counsellor.
- What do you believe are the key issues with compensation preclusion periods?
- What are you seeing in your practice as a financial counsellor?
- What do you believe needs to change to best prevent this issue from detrimentally impacting clients?
The consultation group is scheduled for Wednesday 25 September 2024 10:00 am and will be held online.
Following the consultation group, we will consider further action and keep you up to date on further opportunities for consultation if you are interested.
If you would like to register for the consultation group, please email info@ssrv.org.au and provide your name, your job title and the name of the organisation you work for.
If you have further questions, please contact us via email or by calling 0419 793 652 and asking to speak to Eloise Cox.
