Because the bill is meant to be a framework for a national housing strategy, there are a number of areas.... For example, subclause 3(1) says “does not compromise an individual’s ability to meet other basic needs, including food, clothing and access to education”. I would assume that you wouldn't want this to be an exclusive list. Health services and recreation and so on would also be basic needs that we'd want to provide for and wouldn't want compromised by the costs of housing and so on, as they often are.
That's a question. I have a number of others. I'm wondering whether we need to address the wording in this legislation in order for it to be effective.
Go ahead, please.
