Senate debates Regulations and Determinations
Social Security (Coronavirus Economic Response — 2020 Measures No. 14) Determination 2020; Disallowance

The government does not support the disallowance motion. Means testing is a longstanding fundamental component of the income support system, and the reintroduction of the assets test is an appropriate step in providing targeted support.
Question negatived.
