1396 The Hon. A. PICCOLO (Light) (24 September 2019). The explanation provided in 2019-20 Budget Paper No. 3, p. 85 and footnote (a) under the table, explains that community service obligation payments made to HomeStart Finance for non-commercial activities such as acceptance of non-commercial credit risk and other social programs will now be made from the South Australian Housing Authority. Can you confirm that these payments have not been reduced in real terms as a result of this administrative change?

The Hon. S.K. KNOLL (Schubert—Minister for Transport, Infrastructure and Local Government, Minister for Planning): I have been advised by HomeStart Finance:

There has been no change to its capacity to deliver these programs.
