What's the new housing supply strategy?
27 January 2011
Today's decision to dramatically wind-back the National Rental Affordability Scheme (from a foreshadowed 100,000 homes to just 35,000 homes) and the halving of the Building Better Regional Cities Program leaves the Federal Government without a clear approach on more affordable housing, according to the Urban Taskforce. The Taskforce's chief executive, Aaron Gadiel, said that re-building flood-affected communities is clearly vital, but it shouldn't come at the expense of a coherent federal housing strategy.
