v. No multi-unit complexes of more than 50 dwellings will be constructed as part of this program.
e.
i. Wherever possible, all new public housing will be designed to meet Class C Adaptable housing standards. Adaptable housing ensures people of all ages and abilities can live within the home and it can be easily adapted to meet changing household needs without requiring costly or substantial modifications. Class C housing must include all essential features of the Australian Standard for Adaptable Housing (AS4299-1995) and be certified by an independent accessibility consultant.
Where Class C Adaptable housing is precluded because of site constraints, the design for public housing will conform to the principles of Gold Liveable Housing Design. The gold level provides for more generous dimensions for most of the core liveable housing design elements and includes additional elements in areas such as the kitchen and bedroom.
If neither Class C Adaptable or Gold Liveable Housing Design can be achieved – or for specific projects and/or sites – housing will be designed to standard industry specifications, noting that properties are matched according to tenant’s individual needs.

f. The breakdown of new public housing dwellings by suburb is not available because the capital program will be largely dependent on tenants’ desire to relocate. The breakdown by suburb for the acquisition program is not available as it will depend on the availability of suitable stock in the market.
g.
i. The breakdown of new public housing dwellings by proximity to shops, services and transport is not available because the capital program will be largely dependent on tenants’ desire to relocate. A key guiding principle of the government’s salt and pepper approach to public housing is to locate properties close to transport, jobs and services and also to appropriately match properties according to tenant’s individual needs.
