This is a question for the Attorney-General. It's coming up to a decade since the implementation of the robodebt scheme, but there's still no mandatory framework for the use of automated decision-making in government. There are now real community concerns about the use of automated decisions in aged care and the NDIS. You engaged in a community consultation on automated decision-making well over a year ago. When can we expect to see a legislated and mandatory framework for automated decision-making in government to prevent a repeat of robodebt?
