QUESTIONS WITHOUT NOTICE

Senator BRAGG (New South Wales) (14:15): Under Minister Clare O'Neil as housing minister, housing completions are at their lowest level in more than a decade. First home buyers are falling into negative equity. Renters are facing higher rents.

Builders are warning projects won't proceed, as a record number of construction companies face insolvency. Is this what Minister Clare O'Neil considers to be a successful housing policy?
