Is it fair for the honest assessors, to have to put up with these constant rorts, within the Green Loans Program, at their expense?
How a system could ever have been designed, with such minimal commonsense, and planning is beyond belief!
If a system such as this was released in the private sector, the management would be hung drawn and quartered!
Comments such as this one taken from the Sydney Morning Herald's, "Green Loans - A Disaster Story", is a fine example.
The comment made by Ana, being;
"Not only are assessments being rushed through, I suspect some are being completely made up.
I completed assessments on a contract basis for an ex employer, but didn't get paid, so I didn't submit the data. Yet when I asked DEWHA's advice, on what to do with these unsubmitted assessments. They said assessments for those addresses had been submitted and invoiced for, with new booking numbers! This can only have happened if the data was completely fabricated.
I called the householders concerned, to confirm that no-one else had been there to carry out an assessment of their homes. I will provide a copy of what their report should look like, and then we can compare it with what comes through the post. This should be very interesting.
It makes me wonder how many 'assessments' have been invoiced for, which did not even happen. In a few weeks time, perhaps householders across the country, will be receiving HSA reports through the post. Despite the fact that they never agreed to have an assessment carried out, it didn't happen, and they didn't sign a declaration.
The householders will probably ignore the report and throw it away, like so much other junk mail! Unless they have been following the news. The report will certainly not relate to their house!
As it is common knowledge that auditing is not happening, assessor companies (or individuals for that matter), can get away with this. Peter Garrett's defense of the scheme, that it's success can be measured by the rapid uptake, becomes a complete nonsense."
Here, Here, Ana. We could not agree with your comments more. It appears the scheme will be audited long after it has finished!
It is hard to think how a system could have been designed, in a worst case scenario! Or maybe it could not have been! Personally I would have liked to have been in those meetings, to see, to hear and feel the level of discussion and commonsense that went into the planning of one of the greatest green debacles, Australia has seen!
