Press Release – New Zealand National Party
The Government’s public housing plan will fall well short of fixing New Zealand’s housing emergency, National’s Housing spokesperson Nicola Willis says.
“The social housing waiting list is growing at an alarming rate. In the past 12 months alone another 7900 people put their hand up for a home.
“At this rate, another 32,000 people could be on the waiting list by 2025. That makes today’s announcement a drop in the bucket when it comes to fixing New Zealand’s housing woes.
“More and more Kiwis are being priced out of the private market as rents surge and house construction fails to keep up with demand.
