Webinar: Farm debt mediation – an overview

Did you know that creditors can’t pursue a farm debt in arrears until they’ve satisfied the Victorian Small Business Commissioner that they’ve mediated, or attempted to mediate, in good faith with the farmer in arrears?

This protection is legislated in the Farm Debt Mediation Act 2011, which provides farmers with the right to mediate farm debt.

Mediation provides an equitable opportunity for farmers and creditors to sit down together and develop a workable solution to resolve farm debt disputes.

This free webinar hosted by Victorian Small Business Commissioner Lynda McAlary-Smith will provide an overview of the farm debt mediation process.
