MAKE A SUBMISSION: PARLIAMENTARY INQUIRY INTO THE DEMOLITION OF PUBLIC HOUSING

SUBMISSIONS OPEN SEPT 30 – 31 MARCH 2025

ABOUT THE INQUIRY

The Victorian Greens have secured a parliamentary inquiry into the Victorian Labor Government’s plan to demolish 44 public housing towers and privatise most of the land. 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. 

The inquiry will be accepting submissions from the public to inform its recommendations. 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. 

This is why it is crucial that as public housing residents and their supporters, you make your voices heard. If a sea of people make submissions opposing the project, the inquiry and the government will not be able to ignore you. 

This inquiry is an important opportunity to force the Labor government to tell the truth about this disastrous project and to save public housing in Victoria. 

HOW TO MAKE A SUBMISSION

You can make a submission in writing or as an audio or video recording. Your submission must address one or all of the Inquiry’s ‘Terms of Reference’. 

The Greens are hosting workshops across Melbourne to support public housing residents and other community members to create their own submission. 

Please contact us at gabrielle.devietri@parliament.vic.gov.au if you would like help with your submission or attend one of submission writing sessions listed below.

Submissions must be made between 30 September 2024 and 31 March 2025. The sooner the better so the inquiry committee and media have more time to consider your input.

We have developed a SUBMISSION WRITING GUIDE.

Once completed you can make your submission via the Parliament website here.
