I. PNEVMATIKOS Legislative Council Homelessness Services The Hon. I. PNEVMATIKOS (15:17): In terms of the model, why weren't Drug and Alcohol Services regions also included? The Hon. J.M.A. LENSINK Legislative Council Minister for Human Services Homelessness Services The Hon. J.M.A. LENSINK (Minister for Human Services) (15:17): DASSA is funded through a different a different portfolio. They are not formally part of the homelessness sector. They have certainly, I think, through the period of COVID, where we have had people in hotels, we have had fixed addresses, been able to more effectively assist people through that service. We believe that when people are provided with a roof over their head and are able to stabilise, they are much better able to engage with those other services.
