GOVERNMENT REGIONAL
OFFICERS' HOUSING
317. Hon STEVE MARTIN to the Leader of the House
representing the Minister for Housing:
I refer to question without notice
442, asked on 10 August 2021 by Hon Colin de Grussa. As I read this question, I
note that there is a typo and I assume that the person answering it will have
done a better job of answering it than I have done of asking it, but I will go
ahead and ask it.
(1) To 31 March 2021—it
should be 2022, obviously—
(a) which government departments have
requested a GROH property for their staff; and
(b) how many of the staff in each
department in part (a) have requested a GROH property?

I thank the honourable member for
some notice of the question.
(1) (a) GROH is
provided to a number of client agencies across the state. As this part of the
answer is in tabular form, I seek leave to have it incorporated into Hansard .

(b) Client agencies continually submit and update
requests for GROH to enable them to meet forecast and changing demand as
part of their workforce planning. The Department of Communities has a live GROH client portal and is unable to
identify the exact property request from client agencies as at 31 March
2021. The member can take this and if it makes sense to him, that is good, but
if he needs to ask another question tomorrow, perhaps he can do that. These
requests fluctuate throughout the course of
a year as business needs change and do not always indicate an immediate demand for housing.
