The Access Card debate in Australia is continuing, and with it there are many critics. The controversial Access Card proposal is supposed to produce a card system that will improve access to government services and minimize fraud in the welfare and health benefits systems. Senator Natasha Stott Despoja of South Australia stated in the Online Opinion that the management leading the Access Card project is shaky, miscalculations of funds for the project will make it much more expensive to complete than first thought, and privacy concerns among constituents all lead to reasons why the debate about the Access Card in Australia should not continue.
