Constituency questions

Bass electorate


Jordan CRUGNALE

Bass electorate

Jordan CRUGNALE (Bass) (14:54): (121) My question is for the Minister for Housing, and the action I seek is a Bass electorate update on the Big Housing Build and for the minister to visit and meet with local advocates and innovative builders. Our government recognises that homelessness comes in a myriad of forms for a myriad of reasons, and to begin to address this, our government’s landmark $5.3 billion Big Housing Build investment is delivering 12,000 new homes right across the state. This program is changing lives. Housing availability, however, continues to be a major challenge right across my electorate but also in the Bass Coast, where we have committed a minimum of $25 million towards addressing this. There are currently six projects progressing, 34 homes underway and $13.5 million of investment so far. I look forward to the minister’s update on these projects and the supports our government is delivering for our community members in my electorate and taking up my offer to visit and discuss these important investments with local advocates. Everyone deserves the security and stability of a home.
