National Partnership Agreement on Remote Indigenous Housing

The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Leader of the Opposition) (14:56): Supplementary arising from the answer: can the minister confirm her answer that there is funding on an ongoing basis for remote Aboriginal housing, that is, ongoing funding for maintenance and new builds of housing?

The Hon. J.M.A. LENSINK (Minister for Human Services) (14:56): That has been the advice of my agency, that there is sufficient funding available that is carried over for us to enable these programs to continue without any threat.
