(Estimates Committee A) The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL House of Assembly Dunstan Premier Indigenous Housing The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL (Dunstan—Premier): I have been advised: As at 31 July 2021, 32.3 per cent of Aboriginal community (remote and non-remote) houses were deemed to be overcrowded using the Canadian National Occupancy Standards (CNOS). CNOS may or may not accurately reflect the housing needs of communities; this should be informed by Aboriginal communities directly. Through SA Housing Authority’s five-year capital investment program, 35 replacement houses being constructed have been designed to be larger in size (e.g. extra bedrooms) to address overcrowding in Aboriginal communities.’ 31 July 2021 figures come from the Authority’s Connect (customer and property) system. These figures are internally available each month. These figures are published each year in the Report on Government Services (RoGs)—the figures in this report are as at 30 June. The latest report was released in January 2021 containing data for 2019-20. The next report will be released in January 2022, containing figures for 2020-21. The report also contains the last five years’ worth of overcrowding figures (%) for Australia and each state.
