Short-term lettings enforcement
The exchange was interrupted repeatedly, but Senator Humphreys persisted in asking the Leader to bring the Housing Minister to the House. He said the Government had passed regulations without giving local authorities the resources needed to enforce them.
The Leader can interrupt me as much as he likes, but the fact is that the Government talks but does not deliver.

I request that the Leader bring the Minister to the House to explain why he has not put resources in place to enforce the new regulations relating to short-term lettings.
