The National Social Security Rights Network (NSSRN), formerly the National Welfare Rights Network, advocates for a social security system based on

• the right of all people in need to an adequate level of income support which is protected by law;
• the right of people to be treated with respect and dignity by Centrelink and those administering the social security system;
• the right to accessible information about social security rights and entitlements, obligations and responsibilities;
• the right to receive prompt and appropriate service and social security payments without delay;
• the right to a free, independent, informal, efficient and fair appeal system;
• the right to an independent complaints system; and
• the right to independent advice and representation.
