01/08/2020

The Tenants' Union of NSW welcomes the opportunity to provide comment and insight to help shape a long term Housing Plan for NSW that will deliver secure, affordable, and liveable housing for everyone, including renters. This submission refers to themes and questions raised in the Discussion Paper. However, there are crucial elements of a comprehensive housing strategy that the four themes do not give adequate weight to and this submission highlights them. Our submission outlines what the key priorities are for renters, a significant stakeholder cohort making up 33.6% of NSW households.
