Hon POTO WILLIAMS (Associate Minister of Housing (Public Housing)) on behalf of the Minister of Housing: I do stand by the then Minister's statement, in the context it was given. When we came to Government in 2017, we inherited a housing crisis caused by decades of inaction, and, in particular, a failure of the previous Government to acknowledge the crisis and build enough houses. So while the previous Government refused to even admit there was a crisis, we took action. We banned offshore speculators. We closed tax loops for investors. We began the largest build programme in a generation, established the progressive homeownership scheme, and we're supporting thousands of Kiwis into their first homes through first-home grants. While we have reset the KiwiBuild programme, the lives of more than 1,000 families have been changed by purchasing their first home through this programme. We know there's more work to do and we're starting to see the green shoots, with a record number of houses being built and the highest market share for some homebuyers on record. I'm proud of our record to date, and I would put this against the previous Government's denial and inaction any day of the week.
