My question is to the Prime Minister. I refer to reports that his government is trying to claw back $32 million from low-income individuals, including age pensioners, who received JobKeeper payments. Why is the government harassing and targeting ordinary Australians but refusing to demand a refund from big corporations who banked $13 billion in JobKeeper payments whilst their earnings and profits grew last year?
