flag A bill to prevent "robodebt"-style welfare scheme abuses is introduced but unlikely to pass in Australia.

flag A bill to prevent a recurrence of the unlawful "robodebt" scheme, which falsely accused almost 400,000 Australians of owing money, will be introduced to federal parliament by the Greens and crossbench MPs. flag The proposal includes a positive duty of care for welfare recipients by the Department of Social Services and a six-year limit on debt recoveries. flag Despite the bill's introduction, it is not expected to pass as it is not government legislation.
