/ 12th June 2012I have an agenda for discussion:
1. Why change the age legibility now?
2. Why is there concern over “costs” related to the Super?
3. Why is there a strong public reaction to age legibility for the Super?
This must be answered first I believe.
4. How much will future generations have to contribute to the Super?
5. Would a “Affordability Mechanism” help pin-down options?
6. The UnitedFuture option is desired by a number of people,
if we applied a Affordability Mechanism approach to this option – how will it stack up?
7.

1. Why change the age legibility now?
2. Why is there concern over “costs” related to the Super?
3. Why is there a strong public reaction to age legibility for the Super?
This must be answered first I believe.
4. How much will future generations have to contribute to the Super?
5. Would a “Affordability Mechanism” help pin-down options? A designed matrix whereby a checklist type workplan
will enhance and speed progress in decision-making.
6. The UnitedFuture option is desired by a number of people,
if we applied a Affordability Mechanism approach to this option – how will it stack up?
7. When say, two best options are finalized, should there be a national referendum?
