I thank the honourable member for
some notice of the question.
(1)–(4) The
housing supply unit is a directorate in the Department of Treasury, with eight
FTE positions. This represents 2.6 per cent of Treasury's approved 304 FTEs
for 2024–25, with the unit accounting for a similar percentage of
corporate overheads. The unit is working to boost housing supply and
affordability in Western Australia, including
coordinating the state's endorsed approach to participating in the
Housing Australia Future Fund facility and the National Housing Accord
facility's first round of funding.
