Corroboration. The AAT noted that Xxxxx had not called as a witness the man with whom she claimed she had been living. In those cir cumstances, the AAT said, it was entitled to draw the inference that his evidence would not have assisted her case; and the AAT referred to several judicial decis ions — Xxxxx v Xxxxxx (1959) 101 CLR 298; X ’Xxxxxxx x Reichard [1975] VR 916; and Girlock (Sales) Pty Ltd v HurrelK 1982) 149 CLR 155. ‘Objective indicia’ of a relationship After referring to the Federal Court de cision in Lym m (1983) 20 SSR 225, the Tribunal said that social attitudes to de facto relationships were changing quickly. These relationships were being recognised in the context of adoption, in vitro fer tilisation and anti-discrimination laws. The AAT continued: As the community becomes more accepting of people living in de facto situations, it becomes less likely that a woman living in a de facto situation will adopt the name of the man with whom she lives, or that the couple will hold themselves out as being married. Married people now sometimes re xxxx separate names and often keep their financial affairs separate. Thus it becomes more difficult to determine from objec tive indicia which couples are living in a bona fide domestic situation as if they are man and wife, and which are simply living in a sharing relationship, sharing accommoda tion and other aspects of domestic life, but not living as if they were man and wife. (Reasons, para. 37) But the AAT concluded that the evi dence in the present case showed that, at the time when the decision under review was made (30 August 1983), Xxxxx was living with B as his wife on a bona fide domestic basis although not legally mar ried to him. That evidence included ‘an association lasting 8 years, many changes of address, some shared social life, emo tional support, together with [the various statements made by Xxxxx over the years] ’: Reasons, para. 38. Recovery of past payments The Tribunal observed that the evidence indicated that there had been a de facto relationship between Xxxxx and B for some years before August 1983. Con sequently, the rate of Xxxxx’ unemploy ment and special benefits should have taken account of B’s income;and she had probably been overpaid. However, the evidence showed that, at the date of the hearing, Xxxxx was in a poor financial position, and, therefore, it would have been inconsistent with welfare principles to threaten her newly established indepen dence by demanding repaymen...
