 Georgie CROZIER (Southern Metropolitan) (14:07): (1323) My constituency question is to the Minister for Housing and Building, and it is in relation to the Horace Petty public housing in Prahran. I was on the Prahran pre-poll on Saturday speaking to a constituent, Carol. She was there with her mother, and she said, ‘I am so worried. We are getting moved out of our homes. We’ve been relocated. We’ve had no communication.’ She has followed up with an email to me, which says:

Since the announcement in October there has been no community communication, only if they have found a property for you. I would like to have more communication, as I have been here for thirty years and they don’t seem to care about that.

I can say that Carol and her mother were so concerned about where they were going to live and what they were going to do. I ask that the minister provide that community consultation that they need in relation to what is happening to these redevelopments so that these people in public housing know exactly where they are going to be living.
