“This data shows Services Australia has scored an ‘F’ across a range of key performance targets,” Shadow Minister for Government Services and the Digital Economy Paul Fletcher said.
“This agency desperately needs a leader who gets up every morning with a relentless focus on customer service. Bill Shorten is clearly not such a leader.
