HOUSING SA PROPERTIES

In reply to Mr GARDNER (Morialta) (25 June 2012).

The Hon. I.K. HUNTER (Minister for Communities and Social Inclusion, Minister for Social Housing, Minister for Disabilities, Minister for Youth, Minister for Volunteers): I am advised that as at 30 June 2012, there were 1,769 South Australian Housing Trust properties not currently tenanted, which included 993 untenantable properties.

The average number of days to re-let Housing SA properties during 2011-12 was 21 days, significantly faster than the national average.
