Federal Minister for Community Services, Jenny Macklin, has given her support for welfare quarantining measures for those placed into mandatory alcohol treatment as part of the Country Liberal Parties new alcohol policy.
The quarantining of welfare payments will ensure welfare money is not spent on alcohol at the conclusion of the 12 week program.
Any person who has been placed into protective custody 3 times in 2 months will be forced to take part in the rehabilitation program.
The Northern Territory Government will spend 45 million dollars on the rehabilitation program.
