Minister for Housing, Homelessness, and Cities. Member for Hotham. Authorised by C O'Neil, ALP, Oakleigh.
We’ve just introduced legislation to cut all student debt by 20%.
We're delivering on a promise that matters. We've just locked in contracts to build 5,001 new social homes across Australia. For women fleeing violence who deserve better than a refuge. For veterans who served our country and need support. For nurses working double shifts…
Get on the tools and get paid for it. From tomorrow, new construction apprentices can sign up and get a $10k cash bonus. The apprentices I met this morning told me how excited they are to build more homes for Australian families. And we're backing them. More tradies, building…
The Albanese Government is working with every level of government to cut through the red tape so our nations builders can get on with their job.
Our first piece of legislation will cut student debt by 20% - as promised.
It’s become too hard to build a houses in this country. That didn’t happen overnight. Over 40 years, all levels of government have built up a thicket of rules and regulations that make it harder to build the homes Australians need—especially affordable housing. Under the…
First meeting of our new Cabinet. We've got a big agenda: from cutting 20% off student debt to strengthening Medicare and building more homes. And this team will work hard every day to get it done.
Today I had the great honour of being sworn in as the Minister for Housing, Homelessness and Cities. I thank the PM for the opportunity to serve and am grateful to take on the Cities portfolio in addition to Housing and Homelessness. Housing is a life-defining challenge for…
I am pleased to share that I will be reappointed Minister for Housing and Minister for Homelessness. I am also honoured to be appointed the Minister for Cities, and I would like to thank the Honourable Senator Jenny McAllister for her incredible work. Now it’s time to get back…
First Labor caucus of the new term with many, many new faces in the room. The PM’s main message was this: every day, our government will work to faithfully return the trust the Australian people have placed in us.
Thank you, Hotham. I’m deeply grateful for the chance to keep serving you in our federal parliament — it’s an honour I never take for granted. And to every volunteer who gave their time, energy and heart to this campaign— thank you. True believers across Hotham gave up their…
Happy election day! Thank you to all the Labor legends volunteering across Hotham. You're incredible ❤️ Vote Labor today for 5% deposits for first home buyers. Vote Labor for 20% off all student debt. Vote Labor for lower taxes. Vote Labor to keep building Australia's future…
We’ve been everywhere – over 90 visits in nearly 50 electorates. Thousands of conversations with renters, first home buyers, and people in social and affordable housing. One thing is clear: Australians need more homes – for themselves, their kids, their future. This election…
If you’re still deciding how to vote - this one’s for you.
The Coalition love to talk about housing but when you fact-check them the truth is wild: They built just 373 social and affordable homes over almost 10 years. Total. In the whole country. That’s not delivering on housing - that’s a rounding error. Under Labor we're delivering…
