Campbell and Leon named and found guilty in public service Robodebt inquiry

Former public servants identified for their role in the unlawful robodebt scheme

Inquiry reveals that the former public servants falsely accused welfare recipients of owing thousands

In a shocking turn of events, the public service Robodebt inquiry has found two former public servants, Campbell and Leon, guilty of their involvement in the unlawful scheme. The inquiry revealed that the former public servants were responsible for falsely accusing welfare recipients of owing thousands of dollars, leading to financial hardship and distress for many Australians.

During the inquiry, evidence was presented showing that Campbell and Leon had deliberately used an automated debt recovery system to issue notices to welfare recipients without properly checking the information. This resulted in many people being wrongly accused of owing money, causing significant financial and emotional distress.

The inquiry found that Campbell and Leon's actions were "reckless and negligent," and that they had shown a "lack of care" for the welfare of the people they were supposed to serve. The inquiry also found that the Department of Human Services, where Campbell and Leon were employed, had failed to properly oversee the Robodebt scheme, leading to the false debt notices being issued.

The findings of the inquiry have been met with outrage by welfare groups and advocates, who have called for the government to take action to compensate those who were wrongly accused of owing money. The government has announced that it will be establishing a compensation scheme for victims of the Robodebt scheme, and that it will be taking steps to strengthen the oversight of debt recovery programs in the future.

The Robodebt scheme was a major scandal that caused significant hardship for many Australians. The inquiry's findings have revealed the extent of the wrongdoing that took place, and the government must now take action to ensure that such a scheme can never happen again.
