Victorian government's affordable housing plan rollback on public land in Preston and Kew, with only 14% and 10% for social housing.
Critics claim the Victorian government's affordable housing plan is ineffective in tackling Melbourne's housing crisis, with recent decisions showing a rollback on public housing. Public land in Preston and Kew designated for social and affordable homes will be sold to private developers, with only 14% and 10% of homes respectively being "affordable". This could displace over 10,000 households, adding them to the 58,000+ on the public housing waiting list.
