At @sydneyalliance Assembly, Matt Kean: “I hear you. I will put minimum standards in rental homes on the agenda. I will put ‘no grounds evictions’ on the agenda. I
think this the right thing to do as Treasurer of NSW. This issue should not be partisan.”

According to the 2021 Census there are some one million unoccupied private dwellings across Australia. This equates to about 10% of Australia’s private residences. My table shows that this has been the case for a long time across Australia. https://t.co/7E6y5yhXDc
