Senator GALLAGHER (Australian Capital Territory—Minister for the Public Service, Minister for Finance, Minister for Women, Manager of Government Business in the Senate and Vice-President of the Executive Council) (14:56): I didn't expect that question, Senator Payman—I have to say that. It's a very similar question to the question that Senator Roberts, member of One Nation, asked me earlier in the week about foreign ownership of housing, and the evidence is very clear on that. It is a very, very small percentage of housing that is bought. I can't recall the number I gave Senator Roberts, but it was absolutely minuscule in terms of housing. There are also strict conditions on it. If you are to purchase housing, you need to live in it, for example. I'm more used to those sorts of questions coming to the government from One Nation. Foreign ownership and foreign investment in housing— Honourable senators interjecting— Senator GALLAGHER: Well, it's true. On that issue, it is. It's a very small part, and it's often thrown out there as a cause of housing pressure for Australian people to buy into housing. It is simply not the case. We need to build more housing in this country, and that's what the government will do.
