As I have said many times to Senator Bragg, he knows that the budget papers indicated that, when you take into account all that the government is doing, there will be an increased number of homes over the decade. I would make the point to you that we on this side of the chamber believe that government has a role in contributing to ensuring more houses are built in this country. Under your government, I think there were only some 300-odd houses that were built with the support of government for social and affordable housing over a decade.
