Question asked

MS CARRICK:  Thank you. And could you please provide a breakdown of the distribution of the public housing by district?  The number of dwellings – yes, the number – yes, just a breakdown across the districts? You know, like so 20 there, 2,000 there? 

Ms Borwick:  We will have to take that on notice around those areas. We just need to be a little bit mindful around not identifying individual locations —

MS CARRICK:  No, that is true. 

Ms Borwick:  But I understand what you are saying. 

MS CARRICK:  But by district, like with 11,000? 

Ms Borwick:  Yes, yes. 

MR HANSON:  But you could by suburb, I would presume.

Ms Borwick:  We have done responses to that previously on questions on notice. So I will just have to look it up. I think we will just refresh that, yes. 

THE CHAIR:  Thank you.
