Senate debates Questions without Notice

Housing

I know Senator Cash simply wants to interject. The reality is they don't want more investment in new homes. They don't want more investment in new housing because they just want the market to rip, and they're happy to be on the side of investors rather than first home buyers. They are actually the values on display here. Senator Cash is yelling at me because she cannot abide the fact that, under our government, we are actually investing in new supply for first home buyers so more young Australians can get into the market—you can't handle that, can you?
