My question is to the Minister representing the Minister for Social Services. Can the minister confirm that the cost to a single person of the half-year waiting period for a payment like JobSeeker can be up to $10,600? Can the minister confirm that super withdrawn early is counted as a liquid asset, which can trigger a half-year waiting period when they don't have a job?
