There it is. Let's remember, evictions are traumatic, can ruin lives and can easily result in homelessness - especially when there's nowhere affordable to go. So, why do govts entrust solving the housing crisis to an industry that is helping to create it?

5) Universities are being exempted from the Planning Act is huge. They already have expropriation powers (not sure how many people know that) and this basically gives them a hell of a lot of power. Need to see the details still.
