Housing SA

Mr KNOLL (Schubert) (14:49): My question is to the Minister for Social Housing. How much is in the budget to repair and maintain houses currently untenanted within Housing SA?

The Hon. Z.L. BETTISON (Ramsay—Minister for Communities and Social Inclusion, Minister for Social Housing, Minister for Multicultural Affairs, Minister for Ageing, Minister for Youth, Minister for Volunteers) (14:49): Within the budget this year?

Mr Knoll: Yes.

The Hon. Z.L. BETTISON: I will have to come back to you with the actual figure of the specifics that you are asking about but, if you are talking about those untenanted but available for vacancies, obviously we will turn them around as quickly as possible. Most of them require minor maintenance.
