Financial Services Union assistant secretary Jason Hall has described the decision as "outrageous". "The NAB should cease regional branch closures which are only being continued because the bank wants to cut costs and push up profits," he said. "NAB's decision to close (the) Waroona branch is a further betrayal of staff and the community. "It is a disgrace that the NAB continues to aggressively pursue its branch closure strategy without genuine community engagement and employee consultation." Canning MHR Andrew Hastie described the move as a "bad decision", claiming the decision shows big corporates such as NAB "just don't care". "Local banks are the centre of our regional communities, and their closures hurt residents, sporting groups and small businesses," he said.
