The housing landscape in Western Australia is at a critical juncture. With alarming statistics revealing a 27.5% decline in new construction loans, a rental vacancy rate of merely 0.7%, and a continuous decrease in the total number of social housing stock under Labor's administration, the plight of Western Australians in search of affordable housing has reached unprecedented levels.
In this round table discussion, we seek to explore the multifaceted dimensions of this crisis and identify viable strategies to alleviate the burden on individuals and families across our state. Hon. Steve Martin MLC, with his extensive experience and dedication to housing issues, will lead the conversation, providing valuable insights and perspectives.
We invite you to contribute your expertise and insights to this critical dialogue. Together, let us brainstorm innovative approaches and policy interventions that a Liberal Government can undertake to address the housing crisis effectively.
