“Today’s announcements recognise the extent of the housing crisis is a shared challenge. The Housing Australia Future Fund will provide the crucial base for these reforms to occur. It is important the opposition and cross bench do not delay in passing these Bills.
“HIA is ready to work closely with industry and with all levels of government to ensure that these reforms come to fruition. Without changes such as these, the housing problem will only worsen, governments on all levels have a role to play and todays proposals are a good step forward to easing the problem” concluded Ms Martin.
