Homelessness

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN (14:57): Final supplementary: exactly what has been the increase in funding for homelessness services in Coober Pedy since February 2020?

The Hon. J.M.A. LENSINK (Minister for Human Services) (14:57): We would need to go back to the alliances to figure that out, because they are the ones that are able to direct their money. We don't dictate which town gets how much money. We leave that to the experts on the frontline, who are the ones who are able to direct that money. Quite frankly, the non-government services who are operating on the ground, who have the eyes and ears, are much better at determining these matters than governments.
