The parliamentary inquiry into Labor’s plan to demolish 44 public housing towers and privatise most of the land is now open for submissions.

The inquiry will investigate the rationale and cost-modelling for the decision, whether alternatives were considered, as well as the plan’s impact on current public housing residents. 

Many groups that stand to profit from the government’s decision will be making submissions in support of demolishing the towers, including property developers and wealthy investors. 

It is crucial that MPs hear from public housing residents and community members about what you think of Labor wanting to demolish the towers. If the parliamentary committee hears from people like you opposing the project, it will make it harder for Labor to go ahead with it.  

This workshop is for anyone who wants to learn more about the inquiry and how you can make a submission.
