1/ $66M Because the Liberals didn't foresee more pandemic leave being needed?
Bizarre🤔A special appropriations determination that is exempt from parliamentary scrutiny (can't be disallowed) was raised last Saturday.
It goes to the NRRA who have $200M+ in unspent money.

2/ The explanatory memorandum has some clues;
👉to do this, the money must be "Urgent" & "unforeseen" (or from error)
👉It's for the $1,500 Pandemic Leave payments
👉$66M allows for 44K payments
👉They only budgeted $12.6M because of Delta.
👉They only realised last week.

3/ The NRRA new & has attracted scandals from the beginning
Liberals gave Liberals mate Shane Stone $617K salary as Chair of this new agency.
Asked about his appointment in estimates Mr Stone said he was informed by “the Prime Minister’s office by one of the very senior advisers”

Many questions are begging to be asked.
🤔How can the government have expected COVID would not be causing people to isolate & quarantine from October 2021. Perhaps they were expecting people to keep going to work with COVID

🤔Why has no press release been put out explaining this unusual and urgent appropriation of $66M
🤔Why was this so urgent & vital that parliament was bypassed and have the determination made without provision to disallow.

🤔Why did it take until December 2021 to realise they were needing another $66M.
🤔If people taking leave because of COVID was not planned for, what else have they forgotten?
