Constituency questions
Lara electorate
Lara electorate
Ella GEORGE (Lara) (14:38): (361) My question is to the Minister for Housing. Last month the Allan Labor government released Victoria’s Housing Statement, setting a bold target to build 800,000 homes across Victoria in the next decade. In my electorate I am hearing that housing affordability is the main concern of many residents. In fact we are seeing this across the country as it is becoming harder and harder to find an affordable home. This statement is putting forward an ambitious plan to tackle this problem by increasing supply across the state. This is an issue of utmost importance to many across my electorate, so I ask the minister: how will the housing statement and the Allan Labor government’s investment in housing benefit people living in the Lara electorate?
