I answer on behalf of the minister representing the Minister for Housing. I thank the member for some notice of this question. (1) The department commenced a direct housing management association with Mungullah Community Aboriginal Corporation in November 2009. During the remainder of the 2009–10 financial year $212 000 was spent on standard repairs and maintenance at the community. In addition, $266 000 was spent on a specific asbestos removal project. A further $1.194 million was funded through the National Partnership Agreement on Remote Indigenous Housing for the refurbishment of eight houses. (2) The majority of the repairs and maintenance of the refurbishment work was contracted to Gascoyne Asset and Maintenance, which is owned by Mungullah Community Aboriginal Corporation and is located within the grounds of the community. This met the National Partnership Agreement on Remote Indigenous Housing objectives of local Indigenous employment and economic development. The asbestos removal project was completed by contractors with a regional presence. (3) Not applicable.
