‘Nothing delivered’: Albanese government falls well short of housing goal

Sky News Senior Reporter Caroline Marcus rips into Housing Minister Clare O’Neil for meeting only five per cent of the government’s $10 billion housing promise of 40,000 new affordable homes. “She can’t oversee this very important portfolio,” Ms Marcus told Sky News host Peta Credlin. “It’s about 1,400 [homes] and it’s three years off.” Ms Marcus said Housing Australia has “axed an independent committee” so there is “no one to make sure that the spending is defensible.” “[It is] never going to happen. “More waste and nothing delivered.”
