My question is to the Prime Minister. Why did the Morrison government advise Anne from Punchbowl, who is in lockdown, that she would lose her pension if she didn't provide specific proof-of-age documents, which she does not have—especially given Anne is 102, is bed-bound, has been a pensioner for 40 years, and, were it not for the intervention of my office, would have had to travel in an ambulance to Service NSW to keep her pension?
