Government has tabled a Bill to 'fix' income apportionment. It validates past unlawful income calculations (excluding Robodebts); introduces new debt waiver rules for more fairness; creates a resolution scheme for debtors: aph.gov.au/Parliamentary_… #robodebt #incomeapportionment

Every child deserves the support they need to succeed. Only by fully funding public schools, and using that investment in ways that make a real difference, can we ensure they get it.

At the child sexual abuse roundtable in Canberra yesterday, Grace Tame called for a national plan to prevent the grooming of children. Respectful relationships and consent education are focused on peer-to-peer abuse, not the controlling tactics of adults who target children.

People living in distress due to government mistakes and harms, have enough to contend with without losing rights. Surely @AlboMP your teams can work out ways to streamline the processes without handicapping the nation? #FOI

.. and great as this news is, it does not bring any of the perpetrators to justice, OR guard against it happening again, AND proposed #FOI changes may make it harder to #prevent, #discover, or #stop any similar abuse. @antipovertycent

Today, we mark International Single Parent Day, & the anniversary of the National Apology for Forced Adoptions. A poignant reminder of the painful legacy. It's imperative to weave a gendered lens into the fabric of the 2025 Federal Budget. #Auspol2025 youtube.com/watch?v=hQZ2P4…

This morning, I was successful in getting the Senate to call on the government to recognise the issue of medicine shortages in Australia. 90% of medicine we use is produced overseas. We need to ensure the supply of medicine is there for Aussies when we need it.

@DavidShoebridge I never thought I'd see the day when an Australian government built public housing for Americans and not for Australians.

An urgent review of the federal government’s automated welfare compliance system shows Australia’s punitive scheme is a global outlier, adding to doubts about the capability and accountability of senior public servants deploying technology. innovationaus.com/australias-aut…

Labor talked a big game on Robodebt when it was Scott Morrison in charge. So why is it that years on - Labor are still chasing billions of dollars in dodgy and ancient debts from people on income support?
