For access to the Last Post Fund, a member's family must have less than $12,000 in assets—you know the numbers. If I recall correctly, that amount was $24,000 previously, but, in 1995, it was lowered to $12,000. That criterion for eligibility means that almost no families can access the Last Post Fund in order to get a decent funeral.
Are you prepared to bring the threshold back up to $24,000 so that more families can have access to the fund?
