"The final report of the robodebt royal commission has revealed the full extent
of one of the most egregiously harmful acts our government has ever committed
against some of the most vulnerable Australians.
At the end of her scrupulous examination of the robodebt scheme, commissioner
Catherine Holmes concluded by stating that the people behind robodebt caused
extraordinary harm “through venality, incompetence and cowardice”.
Holmes also reluctantly concluded that a compensation scheme for these harms is
not practicable. However, a sealed section of the report has been sent to
relevant agencies that details potential civil and criminal claims that may be
brought against former ministers and public servants.
What are the potential legal avenues available?"
