Social Rental Housing: are there British Lessons for Australia?*
There has been growing interest recently in diversifying housing provision in Australia, especially through the expansion of ‘social rental housing’. The National Housing Strategy is examining the scope for an enlarged non-government role in housing provision and State Housing Authorities (SH As) are developing new models of interaction with other providers of low cost rental housing. Community housing activists, including ACOSS, National Shelter and the Ecumenical Housing Unit, have suggested introducing new forms of tenure and/or expanding existing small-scale nonprofit agencies. One idea which has gained increasing currency is that we should consider the development of local housing associations on the British model (together with more co-ops.). Some advocates of this suggestion hope that housing associations could attract cross-party and/or cross-sectoral support for lowincome housing provision.
