The Financial Services Council (FSC) extends its congratulations to the Assistant Treasurer and Financial Services Minister Stephen Jones following the announcement of his retirement.
CEO of the FSC Blake Briggs said: "The FSC commends Stephen Jones for his hard work and dedication to the financial services industry.
"The financial services industry has appreciated his collaborative and open approach when working with the industry over the past five years, as both the Assistant Treasurer and as opposition spokesperson.
"The Assistant Treasurer can rightly point to a number of successes in his portfolio, and the industry lauds his efforts in ensuring financial advice reform remained on the Government's agenda, legislating the first tranche of its response to the Levy review.
"We wish him the best of luck in his future endeavors."
