HOMELESSNESS SERVICES —
PWC MODELLING
941. Hon Dr BRAD PETTITT to the minister representing the
Minister for Homelessness:
I refer to cost modelling of contemporary
homelessness service models undertaken by PricewaterhouseCoopers for the
Department of Communities to determine the level of funding needed to sustain
current service providers under existing service agreements.
(1) Does the
funding analysis undertaken by PwC show a need to increase funding to sustain
current levels of service?
(2) Have the findings of this funding analysis been
communicated with the sector?
(3) Will the minister please table
the findings?

AnswerView source ↗

I thank the honourable member for
some notice of this question. The following response has been provided by the
Minister for Homelessness.
(1)–(3) PwC
was engaged to develop a funding and cost analysis of homelessness services for
the Department of Communities in preparation for commissioning and based on
existing contracts. Any key findings will be communicated to the sector as
appropriate.
