Ripon electorate housing
Martha HAYLETT (Ripon) (10:02): Last week our Labor government also announced more affordable housing is coming to our region. Round 2 of the Regional Worker Accommodation Fund is delivering 25 new homes for workers in Ararat, nine new homes for workers in St Arnaud and eight new homes for workers in Maryborough. This is huge for our country communities, and I want to congratulate E2E Growth Consultants and Elmstone Property Group, who will kick off construction of these new homes very soon. Labor is truly delivering for our regions, with redeveloped hospitals, new childcare centres, more train services and now more affordable housing to boost our local economies too.
