Defence Housing Australia Amendment Bill 2025

Senator McALLISTER (New South Wales—Minister for the National Disability Insurance Scheme) (12:57): For the third time, I'll answer this question. Defence Housing Australia maintains a portfolio of properties. They do so under their ordinary obligations to bring forward a portfolio of properties and manage that so it can meet Defence's operational needs.

Defence Housing Australia has not entered into an agreement with a foreign military, but they are working on developing the housing requirements that will be necessary to meet the overall workforce demands in Western Australia as a consequence of the SRF-West arrangements.
