My question is to the Minister representing the Prime Minister, Senator Cormann. Yesterday the minister refused to accept that it was wrong to hound Nadia Sievewright over an illegal robodebt when she was eight months pregnant. Kath Madgwick's son Jarrad was issued a robodebt under Mr Morrison's illegal scheme. Jarrad tragically took his life after reading the letter from Centrelink about his robodebt, and Ms Madgwick believes the letter 'tipped him over the edge'. Does the Prime Minister now accept it was wrong to hound vulnerable Australians like Jarrad as a result of the illegal robodebt scheme he designed and implemented?
