Thank you, Senator Pratt. As a matter of fact, I can explain that to you. It's a very sensible question. Alongside the Regional First Home Buyer Guarantee, the Albanese government will deliver the National Housing Accord and will deliver the $10 billion Housing Australia Future Fund.

We have unlocked $575 million in funding from the National Housing Infrastructure Facility. The National Housing Supply and Affordability Council will provide independent advice to the government, we will have a national housing and homeless plan and we will implement the help-to-buy scheme. All of our housing policies are targeted to ensure that more Australians have a safe place to call home, including the Regional First Home Buyer Guarantee. (Time expired)
