Senator NEAL (New South Wales) (12.32 p.m.) —This was debated in relation to the Social Security Appeals Tribunal. I think it was indicated on the last occasion that the objectives of the tribunal are the same in this legislation as they are in the primary act. It was not satisfactorily

Senator NEAL (New South Wales) (12.35 p.m.) —I think you have, Minister. Obviously, if you wanted to make sure they are maintained as identical objectives, you would not have to make consequential amendments. My question is this: why was it done in this way so that that sort of change

SOCIAL SECURITY AND VETERANS' AFFAIRS LEGISLATION AMENDMENT (FAMILY AND OTHER MEASURES) BILL 1997 - In Committee - Senate Hansard - 29 September 1997
Senator NEAL (New South Wales) (12.39 p.m.) —I really find it quite extraordinary that the minister was scratching around last week unable to find supporting evidence and so used the term `anecdotal'. Any of us can race out and claim that someone said to us that this was the situation.

Senator NEAL (New South Wales) (9.37 a.m.) —We have gone through this debate quite extensively, but because of the elapse of time since we last dealt with it, I would like to briefly recap. The effect of this amendment is to ensure that the benchmarking against average weekly male total

Senator NEAL (New South Wales) (10.18 a.m.) —We do not oppose this bill, but we certainly have major reservations about it. I rise to support the amendment moved by Senator Faulkner. The government has attempted a sleight of hand in this budget and also in this bill. It has promoted

Senator NEAL (New South Wales) (12.43 p.m.) —You support exactly my argument. Under your example, because that daughter was living in the household, it would have to pay an additional $16 rental. But if this proposed amendment put by the government is carried, she would no longer receive rental assistance.
