Royal Commission into the Robodebt Scheme
Submission to: Royal Commission
Joint submission (led by Consumer Action) recommending that the Royal Commission refer the conduct of debt collectors Milton Graham and ARL to the ACCC for investigation. The submission argues that these companies, which were engaged by the commonwealth to collect debt as part of the Robodebt scheme, breached the law by making various assertions about the consequences of non-payment, including threatening legal action, garnishee or departure orders preventing overseas travel. In fact, these consequences were either not possible, intended or under consideration.
