ALGA has provided a submission to the Federal Government’s Housing Legislative Package. 

Across Australia, the supply and availability of affordable housing is a critical issue facing most local governments and their communities. 

The lack of suitable housing impacts the well-being and economic productivity of local communities. 

Councils can play a key role in facilitating and helping build affordable housing in our communities, and that’s why ALGA – which is a signatory to the Housing Accord – is supportive of a national coordinated response to the housing crisis, including further investment in social and affordable housing.
