My question is to the Minister Representing the Minister for Social Services, Senator Farrell. When asked on 28 July 2022 if the government is intending to remove compulsory income management from the Northern Territory, you told the senate no. The instruments that give effect to the operation of compulsory income management via the BasicsCard are due to sunset this Friday. Can you confirm that the government will not let these instruments sunset this week and will extend the operation of compulsory income management?
