Housing

My question is to the Minister representing the Prime Minister, Senator Wong. Yesterday the Prime Minister, who you represent in this chamber, Senator Wong, announced that the Home Guarantee Scheme would be expanded, and it will now be uncapped and no longer means tested. Can the minister please explain why the Albanese government has decided to allow the children of billionaires to use taxpayer dollars to ensure their first houses?
