How did you consent to this? It's said by the act of receiving benefits—your entitlement—you agree to do certain things in return. For the entitlement. You are required to sign a 'Job Plan' where you 'consent' to activities, and to payment sanctions. If you don't sign, you are penalised. It's legal!

Australia’s housing market isn’t a ladder, it’s a Ponzi scheme.
The new “first home buyer” plan just feeds the property lobby while renters queue in Bondi.
End negative gearing. Scrap CGT perks. Tax Airbnb rorts. Everyone knows how to fix it. No one’s got the guts.
