Senator WONG (South Australia—Minister for Foreign Affairs and Leader of the Government in the Senate) (14:00): I'm very pleased that you like me so much that you keep asking me the question rather than the representing minister. I also am pleased that you give me the opportunity to again remind everybody that you are standing in the way of 80,000 homes. Senator Watt: The young people up in the gallery. Senator WONG: I remind all the young people in the galleries that this gentleman here is standing in the way of more homes being built. Senator Bragg: This is a point of order on relevance. The question was whether the 2,000 homes had been built or acquired by the government. The PRESIDENT: The minister has just got to her feet and begun to answer the question. I will listen carefully and, if the minister is not being relevant, I will draw her to the question. Senator WONG: The advice I have is that more than half a million homes have been built nationwide since Labor was elected, more than 4,000 homes have been completed with Commonwealth investment and 28,000 are in planning and construction stages. In their decade in office, the coalition built 373 social and affordable homes. Congratulations, Senator Bragg! That really is quite an achievement, isn't it—373 homes in a decade? I again remind Senator Bragg that his first housing policy of this parliamentary term is the opposition to 80,000 homes— Senator Bragg: This is a point of order on relevance. The question was quite clear about the split between how many houses had been built by the Commonwealth and how many had been acquired by the Commonwealth government. The PRESIDENT: Thank you, Senator Bragg. I will draw the minister back to the question. Senator WONG: The advice I have is more than 4,000 homes have been completed with Commonwealth investment and 28,000 are in planning and construction stages. I would make the point, Senator Bragg, as you would know, you delayed and opposed the Housing Australia Future Fund. Therefore the fund only announced its first round of funding in September 2024 and, obviously, this has delayed the construction of many homes for Australians. The PRESIDENT: Senator Bragg, first supplementary?
