Public housing—Priority waitlist
783. Hon Tim Clifford to the parliamentary secretary representing the Minister for Housing and Works:
I refer to the wait turn and priority public housing waitlists, noting that double counting is present in the potential response.
(1) How many applications were on the public housing waitlist at the end of August 2025, and how many individual applicants does that represent?
(2) How many applicants were on the public housing priority waitlist at the end of August 2025, and how many individual applicants does that represent?
(3) How many applicants exited the waitlist due to being placed in social housing during August 2025?
(4) Of those in (3), how many were from the priority waitlist?
Hon Dr Katrina Stratton replied:
I thank the honourable member for some notice of the question. I provide the following on behalf of the Minister for Housing and Works.
The data requested is not yet available. However, a response will be provided on 14 October 2025.
