The attached Appendix 3Y covers transactions in ANZ shares undertaken
on 19 June 2003 by Mr John McFarlane, Chief Executive Officer of ANZ.
As a result of these transactions Mr McFarlane's indirect and direct
holdings of ANZ shares has increased by 100,000 shares from 1,152,839
shares to 1,252,839 shares.
Details of the transactions in the Appendix 3Y are as follows:
* Acquired 750,000 shares at $11.49 through the exercise of options
granted on 31 December 1999 following a resolution of shareholders at
ANZ's 1999 Annual General Meeting.
* Sold 650,000 shares at an average price of $19.182.

arising from the transaction and to reduce gearing related to his
earlier share purchases.
Since the beginning of ANZ's financial year on 1 October 2002, Mr
McFarlane has increased his holding in ANZ by 184,467 shares.
