          <by role="member" id="2742">The Hon. J.M.A. LENSINK:</by>  Today, the Hon. Mr Justin Hanson, in relation to a land sale from his period on council, is quoted by the <term>Leader Messenger </term>as saying, 'I'm not anti-development, but we're not inner city Melbourne, there's not that much demand for low-cost housing.' My questions to the honourable member are:</text>
        <text id="20170531d3fbb9835742413380000272">1.&amp;#x9;Is he aware that Anglicare's rental affordability snapshot has shown that Adelaide's housing across the metropolitan area has been in crisis levels for people living on low incomes?</text>

        <text id="20170531d3fbb9835742413380000273">2.&amp;#x9;Does he support his government's affordable housing policies, and will he apologise to the 21,000 people on the South Australian Housing Trust waiting list, including 3,500 on the category 1 list?</text>

          <by role="member" id="5244">The Hon. J.E. HANSON:</by>  My first question. Essentially, this is about a specific geographical area. You were quoting from the <term>Leader Messenger</term>. What occurred here is there is a development in Modbury, and this particular article relates to that. There was a petition, going back a period of time, when some residents were concerned about some sale of land, and this relates to that specific area.</text>
