55611 (2024). Hon Carmel Sepuloni to the Minister for Social Development and Employment

55611 (2024). Hon Carmel Sepuloni to the Minister for Social Development and Employment: Are beneficiaries who are placed at red according to the traffic light system still able to access, if at all, Social Rehabilitation Assistance?

Hon Louise Upston: The Traffic Light System does not change what assistance is or is not available to people at different sanction levels. These settings remain the same as they were prior to the introduction of the Traffic Light System. I am advised by the Ministry of Social Development (the Ministry) if a client is in rehabilitation, they can still access the Social Rehabilitation Assistance.
