Housing SA Tenancies

In reply to Mr KNOLL (Schubert) (25 March 2015).

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): I have been advised:

Expenditure for professional cleaning includes house cleaning and rubbish removal at vacant properties (including for house sales) and tenanted properties.

Actual maintenance expenditure for professional cleaning for the 2013-14 financial year was $4 million.

Between 1 July 2014 and 28 February 2015, actual maintenance expenditure for professional cleaning was $3.1 million.
