Are financial transactions under $3,000 now referred to Austrac??

The above Wiki does not appear to be in agreeance with this one.

References to follow .... hopefully by the end of the week.

I have heard that government authorities in Australia are allegedly proposing to lower the reportable threshold to $1,000.

Not that I'm aware of, austrac's cash dealer page[1] still says $10k. Actually the act calls for all "suspicious" transactions to be reported, no matter what amount, so depending on your definition of suspicious it could be anything. -- Kevin Ryde 01:23, 12 May 2006 (UTC)
