Siewert, Sen Rachel

Senator SIEWERT (Western Australia—Australian Greens Whip) (15:11): My question is to the Minister representing the Minister for Government Services, the Minister for Families and Social Services, Senator Ruston: Minister, now that the government has finally agreed with recommendation 3 of the 2017 Senate inquiry into the robodebt debacle, which dealt with suspending the use of the income-averaging process, will the government now implement recommendation 1 of that inquiry, which is to put on hold the robodebt scheme until all the procedural fairness aspects of this program are dealt with?
