Social Housing

The Hon. I.K. HUNTER (14:40): A supplementary question arising from the minister's answer: the minister reference the AHURI report, talking about the unmet demand for social housing. Minister, what is the level of unmet demand for social housing in South Australia?

The Hon. J.M.A. LENSINK (Minister for Human Services) (14:40): In the AHURI report the unmet demand—I think nationally they talk about 727,000 affordable homes, with approximately 50,000 for South Australia, but that is across the potentially social as well as private rental and private ownership. So it is within that particular mix.
