This initiative includes $250 million for social housing, $100 million for regional housing, and $100 million for infrastructure to support new housing developments. The package is designed to tackle the housing crisis by increasing the supply of affordable homes, supporting regional growth, and enhancing infrastructure. Premier Roger Cook emphasized the importance of housing as a key election issue, highlighting the government's commitment to making housing more accessible and affordable for all Western Australians. This move is part of a broader strategy to position Labor favorably in the upcoming elections by addressing one of the most pressing concerns for voters.
