AnswerView source ↗
I thank the
honourable member for some notice of the question.
(1) In total,
207 properties are vacant in the department's south east metropolitan
region. At any time, a small percentage of the more than 36 500 statewide
public housing properties will be vacant for a number of reasons, including
refurbishment or maintenance between tenancies, awaiting occupation by new
tenants, awaiting sale or demolition prior to redevelopment, or allocation to
the management of community housing groups.
(2) I seek
leave to incorporate the answer into Hansard .
Leave granted.
