Thanks for clarifying the $11b. I asked on another HN thread if she was now basically on the hook for any significant forfeiture should she subsequently get cash, or hold proceeds from this. Or even, from things like her pension fund?

Two or six levels of decimal magnitude down the food chain, people who are expelled from Australia at government expense often get a tail rider on it: If you do wind up having a way to come back legitimately, we haven't forgotten you cost us $25,000 to get rid of you last time and if we can seize it, we will. I don't think they ever forgive the debt, it's hanging there to be used, if thats useful.
