HOUSING: A year ago, during Homelessness Week 2021, I called on all governments – state, federal and local – to work together to ensure we have the resources for affordable housing to help address homelessness through increasing the rental allowance, a national housing strategy and more federal support for social housing.
The government’s commitment to develop a new national housing and homelessness plan to the tune of $10 billion is very welcome.
Last week, I met with Homelessness Australia, CHIA and National Shelter to discuss how all levels of Government can work together to ensure that everyone, whether they be in Mayo or Maroochydore, has a place to call home.
