In 2018, the Chief Minister and the Minister for Housing and Suburban Development released the ACT Housing Strategy.
The ACT Housing Strategy provides a roadmap for housing in the ACT from 2018 to 2028. It sets out how we will support a sustainable supply of housing for all income levels.
The five goals of the strategy focus on the main issues of concern to the Canberra community:
- An equitable, diverse and sustainable supply of housing for the ACT community
- Reducing homelessness
- Strengthening social housing
- Increasing affordable rental housing
- Increasing affordable home ownership.
The report cards are produced by the Government to measure progress towards achieving the goals.
