O Little Code of FASEA
O little board of FASEA
How still we see thee lie
Above thy deep and dreamless sleep
The silent months go by
Yet in thy ineptitude shineth
Every poor adviser’s plight
Exams and codes and many fears
Are met in thee tonight
For FASEA is born of O’Dwyer
And gathered all above
While advisers weep, the regulators keep
Giving legal action a shove
O planning groups together
Proclaim the unholy birth
And lobbying ring to Frydenberg the King
Of policy there is a dearth
How silently, how silently
The wondrous code is given
So FASEA imparts to adviser’s hearts
An exam timetable that is driven
No ear may hear FASEA coming
But amid Royal Commission sin
Where weak souls will receive it still
FASEA enters in.
