I think I get the gist of it. The senator is making the very good point that housing supply does affect prices, which is why it is passing strange that he, along with his colleagues, has been so opposed to adding to Australia's housing supply. On the one hand he says government shouldn't compete in the market, making the point that supply does affect affordability, but on the other hand he opposes the government's attempts to put more supply into the market.
