Minister, the government is cutting funding for 27,000 affordable National Rental Affordability Scheme homes while proposing a fund that gambles $10 billion on the stock market, which doesn't guarantee a cent to be spent on housing and, last year, would have lost $120 million. Do you accept that currently the government's housing plan will make the crisis worse for renters?
