The Minister said that removing the use of waivers was a Government decision. This is Government legislation. It is not unusual for us to look to a Minister who is taking responsibility for a Department, and who is in government and bringing Government legislation, and make the assumption that there would be conversations and decisions made by the Government around whether using a waiver is appropriate within this legislation. The Minister is saying that some people will have signed a waiver to be part of the redress scheme. Is she saying there were people who got payments from Caranua who did not meet the redress scheme's criteria in terms of having signed a waiver? Are we saying that some people who can access this have a waiver and some do not?
