Afforadable Housing

Jamie is a strong supporter of public and affordable housing and he will continue to stand up on behalf of residents to fight for:

Public housing to be kept in public hands: no more sell-offs.
Improved maintenance: getting your home fixed faster.
Increased investment in public housing, significant increase to housing stock.
Better care and support for tenants.
More affordable housing, especially for workers in key services: teachers, nurses, police officers.

Sydney is facing a severe housing affordability crisis. Many families and individuals struggle to afford housing that is suitable, safe and secure, in areas close to their work and social contacts. Many others are struggling to find any affordable or suitable housing anywhere.

The former Labor government chronically underfunded public housing maintenance which has paved the way for the current Liberal government to financially justify the priviatisation of public assets like these properties, with devastating impacts for the community.

FERRIES AT ANNANDALE AND WEST BALMAIN

Imagine hopping on a ferry at Annandale or West Balmain and being in the heart of the city within minutes.

In 2020, we won the campaign for a Glebe ferry. Now, we have the opportunity to connect more of our area to the ferry network. New ferries at Annandale and West Balmain will provide a faster, smarter route into the city without adding to the traffic on our roads.

Both Labor and the Liberals want to build more polluting and destructive tollways across Sydney. But we have costed a comprehensive plan for a world-class public transport system that makes getting around our city fast and easy.

Dear Transport Minister,

New inner west ferry services would provide efficient, fast and environmentally sound travel to and from the area for workers, tourists, students, pensioners and the general public.

I therefore ask that the Government build on the success of the Blackwattle Bay ferry and establish a ferry service at Rozelle Bay for the Annandale area and reinstate the ferry at West Balmain.
