Future directions of social housing
Statement by minister
MR HARGREAVES (Brindabella—Minister for the Territory and Municipal Services, Minister for Housing, Minister for Multicultural Affairs): I seek leave to make a statement concerning the future directions of social housing in the ACT.
Leave granted.
MR HARGREAVES: The Stanhope government recently announced the final tranche of wide-ranging reforms to social housing policy undertaken since 2005. Today I would like to give the background to these reforms and explain the motivation for them. This government recognises that it has a critical duty to target social housing at those members of the community who are most in need. Our dilemma, and the dilemma for governments and housing authorities across Australia, is how to manage the competing priorities for housing assistance in an extremely tight housing market.
