My question is to Senator Ruston, the Minister for Families and Social Services. On 18 February 2020 The Guardian reported that the government is arguing in documents filed in the Federal Court that it has no duty of care to income support recipients harmed by the illegal robodebt program. Does the government have no duty of care to all Australians, or is it just people on income support?
