(1) It is not expected there will be any job losses associated with the provision of public housing or community housing programs as a result of the 3% efficiency dividend. Public and community housing programs are funded through a variety of funding streams and the 3% efficiency dividend does not have a significant impact on these programs.
(2) Not applicable.
(3) The future of all programs is based on social and economic imperatives. Aboriginal Housing, Community Housing and Keystart are high priorities for this Government and will continue.
(4) Not applicable.
