My question is addressed to the Minister for Government Services. Have any victims of the Townsville flood received debt notices under the government's robo-debt program?

Let me thank the Leader of the Opposition for his question, and let me say, at present, under the income compliance program, no victims in the four postcodes around Townsville have received a debt notice.
