N.J. CENTOFANTI Legislative Council Leader of the Opposition Affordable Housing In reply to the Hon. N.J. CENTOFANTI (Leader of the Opposition) ().19 June 2024). The Minister for Housing and Urban Development has advised: The housing crisis is not specific to South Australia, it is a crisis currently being experienced internationally and across each Australian jurisdiction. The Malinauskas Labor government is working on a considered strategy that seeks to pull every lever available to tackle the crisis head on. One of the levers used to date has been the release of land, to address the simple market mechanics of supply and demand. It should be noted, that throughout the Marshall Liberal government's time in office, less than 190 hectares of land was released for development as opposed to approximately 450 hectares released since March 2022 with an additional 4,000 hectares initiated. On 25 June 2024, the Malinauskas Labor government released its Housing Roadmap—'More Homes for South Australians Housing Roadmap' a considered policy outlining the government's plan to tackle the housing crisis, place downward pressure on the price of housing and invest in the critical infrastructure to deliver additional housing stock to South Australia.
