Indigenous Housing

In reply to Dr CLOSE (Port Adelaide—Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (28 July 2021). (Estimates Committee A)

The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL (Dunstan—Premier): I have been advised:

The 2019 federal budget included $37.5 million for remote housing in South Australia. The Marshall Liberal government is matching this investment by providing $7.5 million per year over five years.

This is the first time the South Australian government has matched the commonwealth government's financial commitment for remote housing.

Through these remote housing arrangements, SA Housing Authority will be delivering a total of 35 remote replacement houses from 2020 to 2025.
