QuestionView source ↗
I refer to the Department of Housing’s new Head Contractor Maintenance Model and the Minister’s comments, ‘that every dollar that I (the Minister) save on maintenance, is a dollar that I can spend on a new house, which means they can reduce the waiting list’, and I ask -
(1) How many homes are scheduled to be built as a result of the savings on housing maintenance?
(2) When will construction begin and where will the homes be built?
(3) Can the Minister confirm that according to the Government’s budget forecasts, the waiting times for Homeswest housing is projected to remain unchanged between 2009-10, and 2010-11 at 103 weeks?
