DrMarkham said since introduction of income management there has been a decline in child protection, it hadn't served as a protection against child abuse & neglect as far as they can see. If it was an effective way of combating child abuse you would expect to see that flow through to figures.

t seems the gov no longer makes public how many of these are forced on the program, but it's compulsory in the NT.

Landlords consider rent assistance as their money.
Time the increased income support and allow more discretion as to where the money goes .
