The Morrison government is indeed here to support all Australians. That includes our CALD communities. We do understand the challenges faced by many of these communities, particularly in Western Sydney at the moment. Our government, through Services Australia, is ensuring that information available on support is accessible to all Australians, with content now translated into 63 different languages to help many of those communities. Multicultural service officers are also working directly with the community. Also in language interviews have been made available to provide information about this payment. The payment is available to Australian residents and eligible working visa holders who meet the eligibility criteria. People can also call 131202 to talk to Services Australia in languages other than English.
