Senator WONG (South Australia—Minister for Foreign Affairs and Leader of the Government in the Senate) (14:40): I'm very grateful— Senator Scarr: Multiple! Senator WONG: Many houses have been completed. That's a very good answer, Senator Scarr, and I thank you very much for that. Senator Bragg, I will go through a few of the figures. As you know, we are getting on with the job of delivering 55,000 social and affordable homes. I'm advised that over 28,000 are in planning and construction—18,000 of those through the HAFF and National Housing Accord Facility and 10,000 through other programs. I would make the point, Senator, that you seem very interested in tracking the progress of a fund that you opposed and you were going to scrap. The PRESIDENT: Senator Wong, please resume your seat. Senator Bragg? Senator Bragg: Sorry to trouble you, but it is a point of order on relevance. The question was quite clear about it being on the number of houses that have been completed. In case you didn't hear, it's about the number of houses completed. The PRESIDENT: I think the minister is being relevant to the question, Senator Bragg. Senator WONG: I outlined in my first response the answer that I was giving Senator Bragg. But, Senator, you can't get away from your position to oppose the HAFF—to oppose any houses being built—by saying, 'It's not relevant to my question.' I think it's pretty relevant to the Australian people—don't you? I reckon the Australian people, those who are concerned about housing affordability, might think that the housing spokesperson position, which is to oppose any houses being built under the HAFF is relevant to a question on housing. This is your problem, Senator Bragg. Your party opposes governments engaging in the housing sector in order to increase supply. We believe that supply is a part of how we— The PRESIDENT: Senator Bragg? Senator Bragg: It's a point of order on relevance. We just wanted to know the number of houses completed, please. The PRESIDENT: The minister has started her response and given you a host of numbers, Senator Bragg. Minister? Senator Cash interjecting— Senator WONG: Thank you, President. I would invite the opposition leader in the Senate perhaps to behave appropriately towards you. Senator, what I would say to you is, as I said, we have 18,000 homes through the HAFF and the National Housing Accord Facility. Over 28,000 social and affordable housing in planning. If you'd like to ask me which houses you're opposing, I'm very happy to go through a list of those. (Time expired) The PRESIDENT: Senator Bragg, first supplementary?
