House of Assembly Fifty-Third Parliament, Second Session (53-2) 53 2 Parliament of South Australia House of Assembly published Question Time Question Time Housing SA Housing SA Mr MARSHALL House of Assembly Dunstan Leader of the Opposition Housing SA Mr MARSHALL (Dunstan—Leader of the Opposition) (14:16): My question is to the Minister for Social Housing. Will the new $200 payment be excluded from Housing SA tenants' income when assessing and determining their rent? The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS House of Assembly West Torrens Minister for Finance Minister for State Development Minister for Mineral Resources and Energy Minister for Small Business Housing SA The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS (West Torrens—Treasurer, Minister for Finance, Minister for State Development, Minister for Mineral Resources and Energy, Minister for Small Business) (14:16): There will be no change to people's requirements for eligibility, I am advised, and if there is we will obviously make sure that this payment does nothing to disadvantage people. We do not want anyone to be disadvantaged by this payment. If the member is asking if it will go towards an income test or that the $200 payment will somehow increase someone's income to make them ineligible for state government services—no, it will not. Members interjecting: The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: The member for Adelaide is warned and the member for Stuart is called to order.
