@bayview; there's a lot more to that article than what you quoted and nor is it at odds with what's been reported by Treasury. Here's a bit more of that article than you provided:
"... Analysis by the independent Parliamentary Budget Office, commissioned by Labor, looked at payments to businesses with higher turnover out to the end of JobKeeper in March this year. The new analysis shows that even after the JobKeeper rules were changed in September 2020, more than $3 billion went to firms with rising turnover. In total, the analysis shows almost $19.7 billion went to 488,000 businesses that had higher revenues. Labor assistant treasury spokesman Andrew Leigh said the money could have gone to help thousands of people and small businesses affected by the recent Delta lockdowns. He said the government continued to hide the identities of the largest firms to have received JobKeeper.“Unlike Britain, Canada, New Zealand and the United States, Australia has no public register of firms that received wage subsidies. Labor believes that the Australian Tax Office should publish the names of larger firms (with turnover above $10 million) that received JobKeeper,” he said.
