The Australian newspaper yesterday reported the organisation Open Arms missed paying up to $50 million dollars in superannuation payments dating back to 2012.  Dr Zena Burgess, CEO Australian Psychological Society says her team found out via the media, and that it's a "slap in the face" and "insulting."
