Senator Ruston [explained that](https://www.openaustralia.org.au/senate/?gid=2023-03-06.33.1): > *... This pay clerk function of the PPL scheme is something we have long supported so as to remove the unnecessary red tape that's associated with the administration of this really important initiative that has got the bipartisan, or the multipartisan, support of this place.
