My question is to the Minister for Government Services. Given that the government has now suspended robodebt after three years of operation, is it because the coalition government, at the time of creating it, either (a) didn't seek legal advice, (b) had inaccurate legal advice or (c) received legal advice but just didn't think that Australians would notice the government unjustly enriching itself at the expense of the most vulnerable in Australian society?
