Let me thank the member for Maribyrnong for his question. As I've said now at a number of different press conferences, the government moved expeditiously to pause all debt recovery once informed that the scheme was raising debts in an insufficient manner. We then announced that we would be repaying those funds to 373,000 Australians, that those refunds would be flowing to Australians from 1 July and that more information would be provided to those impacted in preparation for that to occur.
