We have set ourselves the target of 1.2 million homes by the end of the decade. We are backing that up with policies. We are backing that up with working with the states and territories on their planning reforms, on ensuring that they're getting rid of bottlenecks for approvals, and through our Housing Australia Future Fund and through our Social Housing Accelerator, with new housing opening all the time. That is the focus that this government brings to housing. We will continue to implement our policies. We will continue to work with the states and territories, because we know that it's supply that we need to address, to make sure that people can get into the housing market. (Time expired)
