    Discussions are circling on whether now's the time to means-test Superannuation

    Discussions are circling on whether now's the time to means-test Superannuation

    25 June 2025
    2023 Census data shows 33 thousand over-65s earned 100-to-200 thousand dollars - and more than nine thousand toped that figure.

    Retirement Commissioner Jane Wrightson, says if there is a strong economic argument Super isn't affordable, means testing could be worth it.

    She says if someone earning more than 180 thousand dollars also claims Super, the cost to taxpayer could be questioned.
