Mount Waverley electorate
Mr FREGON (Mount Waverley) (14:45): (6347) My constituency question is for the Minister for Housing, and I ask: how will the budget announcement of $5.24 million for the Holmesglen TAFE youth foyer help to alleviate housing insecurity for constituents in my electorate of Mount Waverley district, in particular at-risk youth? Recently I was joined by the minister at the Holmesglen youth foyer in Glen Waverley, where former foyer resident Sam Jelley gave firsthand insight into how this youth housing model has played such an important role in his life, providing him with so much more than just a roof over his head but a place to belong, to learn and to thrive. I thank Launch Housing, their CEO, Bevan Warner, and his whole team for their ongoing work, and I look forward to the minister’s response.
