The Greens introduced their Banking Amendment Bill in June.
The Bill provides legislative protection for banking customers in a number of basic banking services:
* Minimising or removing fees from basic services; * Ban $2 ATM fees; * Introducing a variable rate mortgage product that will only permit genuine changes to the lenders cost of funds to be passed on to customers; * Capping the level of mortgage exit fees.
I reckon this will now be overtaken by wider reforms.
