CANBERRA Soldes Homme Air Jordan 13 Low Blanche Rouge , July 24 (Xinhua) -- The Australian government on Monday flagged wide-ranging changes to the nation's superannuation system, the first in almost 25 years when contributions to one's superannuation funds were made compulsory.
Announcing the government's intentions on Monday, Financial Services Minister Kelly O'Dwyer said Australians would be given greater control over their superannuation, something she said would "give everyday members much more confidence that their funds are being used in their best interests."
Speaking to the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC), O'Dwyer said the government would also give the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority (APRA) new powers to identify issues and intervene in the regulation of super funds.
"There aren't enough protections to ensure that superannuation is being managed in the best interests of members Homme Air Jordan 12 Ovo Noir Or Acheter ," O'Dwyer said.
"We need to give everyday Australians more control over their superannuation providers and we need to have an even stronger regulator to make sure the foundations are right."
Under the changes, Australians will also be able to "opt-out" of costly extra expenses within superannuation contributions, such as life insurance which many Australians might not know they have.
"You'd be horrified to learn that in today's day and age, a lot of people can't simply pick up the telephone or get on line and simply opt-out," O'Dwyer said.
"This is particularly a problem for younger people with part-time jobs Homme Air Jordan 12 Retro OVO Blanche Or Pas Cher , maybe working for a supermarket, and a lot of those younger Australians don't realize that they're paying premiums that they will never get the benefit of."

Hour after excruciating hour, Mexicans were transfixed by dramatic efforts to reach a young girl thought buried in the rubble of a school destroyed by a magnitude 7.1 earthquake. She reportedly wiggled her fingers, told rescuers her name and said there were others trapped near her. Rescue workers called for tubes Homme Air Jordan 11 Retro Blanche Pas Cher , pipes and other tools to reach her.
News media, officials and volunteer rescuers all repeated the story of “Frida Sofia” with a sense of urgency that made it a national drama, drawing attention away from other rescue efforts across the quake-stricken city and leaving people in Mexico and abroad glued to their television sets.
But she never existed, Mexican navy officials now say.

“We want to emphasize that we have no knowledge about the report that emerged with the name of a girl,” navy Assistant Secretary Angel Enrique Sarmiento said Thursday. “We never had any knowledge about that report Acheter Homme Femme Air Jordan 11 72-10 Retro Noir , and we do not believe — we are sure — it was not a reality.”
Sarmiento said a camera lowered into the rubble of the Enrique Rebsamen school showed blood tracks where an injured person apparently dragged himself or herself, and the only person it could be — the only one still listed as missing — was a school employee. But it was just blood tracks — no fingers wiggling, no voice, no name. Several dead people have been removed from the rubble, and it could have been their fingers rescuers thought they saw move.
Twitter users quickly brought out the “Fake News” tag and complained that the widespread coverage had distracted attention from real rescue efforts where victims have been pulled victims from the rubble — something that hasn’t happened at the school in at least a day.
Viewers across the country hung on the round-the-clock coverage of the drama Wednesday from the only network that was permitted to enter. The military Homme Air Jordan 11 Space Jam Noir Blanche Pas Cher , which ran the rescue operation, spoke directly only to the network’s reporters inside the site.
Reports about the trapped girl led to the donations of cranes, support beams and power tools at the school site — pleas for help quickly met based on the urgency of rescuing children. It was unclear if that affected other rescue operations going on simultaneously at a half dozen other sites across the city.
Despite all the technology brought to bear at the school, including thermal imaging devices, sensors Homme Air Jordan 11 Retro Gamma Blue Noir Acheter , scanners and remote cameras, the mistake may have come down to a few over-enthusiastic rescuers who, one-by one, crawled into the bottom of shafts tunneled into the rubble looking for any signs of life.
“I don’t think there was bad faith involved,” security analyst Alejandro Hope said. “You want to believe there are children still alive down there.”
Rescuers interviewed by The Associated Press late Wednesday at a barricade that blocked most journalists from reaching the site believed the story of the girl implicitly. Operating on little sleep and relying on donated food and tools Femme Air Jordan 11 Retro OG Blanche Noir En ligne , rescuers were emotionally wedded to the story, and the adrenaline it provided may have been the only thing keeping them going.
Rescue worker Raul Rodrigo Hernandez Ayala came out from the site Wednesday night and said that “the girl is alive, she has vital signs,” and that five more children had been located alive. “There is a basement where they found children.”
Despite the setback — and the diminishing hopes that anyone was left under the rubble — rescuers appeared unwilling to question the effort.
“It was a confusion,” said Alfredo Padilla Femme Air Jordan 11 Retro Legend Blue Pas Cher , a volunteer rescuer at the school. “The important thing is there are signs of life and we are working on that..
