Minister for Financial Services and Superannuation Bill Shorten has called on the public to be involved in the consultations, with the two forums to be held simultaneously from 12pm to 2pm on 7 June in Sydney and Melbourne.
The charter group was announced on May 9, and has been heavily criticised by accounting bodies and the Opposition.
It includes former AustralianSuper chair Elana Rubin, former MLC chief executive Steve Tucker, Australian Prudential Regulation Authority deputy chair Ross Jones, former Cooper Review chair Jeremy Cooper and former Federal Court judge Alan H Goldberg.
They have begun the process of drafting a super charter, which aims to “enshrine the core objectives, values and principles of our superannuation system for the long term”, according to Mr Shorten.
The group will also seek input on the establishment of a Council of Superannuation Custodians, and will report annually on the adequacy, performance and sustainability of superannuation, as well as make recommendations to parliament for improvements.
The charter group will consider the need for additional further public forums. Consultation closes on Friday 21 June 2013, Mr Shorten stated.
