Trung LUU (Western Metropolitan) (12:57): My constituency question is directed towards the Minister for Housing and Building regarding the government’s mismanagement of Victorian public housing waiting lists. Recently my constituent Mrs Hai Nguyen-Gibson from Footscray reached out to me, sharing the difficulty of her son Xavier, who has been on the waiting list for three years. They are priority 1 and now homeless. Could the Minister please update my constituent and her son, Mr Gibson, on the government housing application? If it would help the minister, the application number is 7104049129. It will provide housing that they desperately need. Mr Gibson first applied in 2001 and was placed on the Victorian housing register priority list in 2022. Since then, Mrs Nguyen-Gibson and her son have been calling and emailing Footscray housing for an update and have been passed around from person to person with no real progress, despite Xavier being on a priority 1waiting list.
