Today is D-day for the loan sharks in this country. It's time that the coalition started standing up for vulnerable Australians and started protecting consumers. Today, the member for Perth and I introduced a private member's bill to protect vulnerable Australians—and what have we seen from this government? Absolutely nothing. We have seen nothing when it comes to being on the side of consumers where people are being ripped off by these loan sharks. It's time the government delivered on its own recommendations. We heard from the Assistant Treasurer today, but I suspect she has been rolled by the hard right wing of this government. Today, I'm calling on the Turnbull government to deliver protections for those who need them the most.
