I have to give credit where credit is due, over 50% blocked was accurate in June this year, but since this video has been public - as of 15th Oct the blocked percentage has dropped to 35.21%! That's an opening up of over 1000 files! Keep it up @ServicesGovAU
Have you ever wondered how @Centrelink REALLY works?
We've found out how to improve this atrophied system by "shimming it open" from the outside and need YOUR help! (yes, you!)
It's WAY quicker and easier than calling @ServicesGovAU.
Here's how it works:

"Every time I call I get an automatic message telling me they can't take my call"
Centrelink: "You'll need to speak to a staff member about this"

Have suggested a senate estimates question requesting wftd host and approved “volunteer” orgs at multiple time points to see if we can’t get a sense of how they’ve “tightened” requirements following this story 👀
Read @kristin8X pointing out that the voluntary work organisations list is not public.
Here's the page that tells any centrelink worker exactly where to look for the database to search it.

It could probably be FOI'd but you'd only get a snapshot in time.
Legalise Cannabis allowed to use Centrelink recipients as volunteers ahead of NSW election abc.net.au/news/2023-03-29/m…
@Centrelink should just be making the database public by themselves, but when they don't, this is about the best we can do

the sheer nerve to talk about centrelink phone service
my brother in christ, you could not even *get through to be on hold* during the coalition years at times
I have the receipts, and the submissions to inquiries
being on hold is a SHEER IMPROVEMENT
let's talked blocked calls

At this point we have what I believe to be our first mention of @Open_Welfare via screenshot.

It took two months for @ServicesGovAU to come up with this pissweak response that doesn’t answer why they ignore @OAICgov. Just tell me there’s no technical reason as to why they’re not downloadable. Ping @jpwarren
All I can really do here is appeal to @ServicesGovAU's better nature that HO HO
HEE HEE
HA HA
Is something i hope exists somewhere, that beneath the shell of a ground down employee, is a frank and fearless APS dying to come out
Another lawyerly response missing the point, refusing to engage by @ServicesGovAU. So there you have it there’s officially no reason as to why foi documents aren’t available to download! No documents found! Administrative explanation bogus and refusal to explain anymore.
