Stamp duty
1306. Hon Tjorn Sibma to the parliamentary secretary representing the Treasurer:
I refer to windfall gains in stamp duty revenue received by the state government.
(1) Will the state government commit to further stamp duty relief to assist homebuyers?
(2) If not, why not?
Hon Samantha Rowe replied:
I thank the honourable member for some notice of the question and provide the following answer on behalf of the Treasurer.
(1)–(2) The state government delivered transfer duty relief as part of the 2025–26 state budget, increasing the exemption and concessional thresholds. The budget contained $1.4 billion in additional investments to boost housing supply and affordability, lifting our total additional investment to $5.8 billion in recent years.
