Australia’s Homeless and the Pandemic

The question is will Australia’s homeless be turfed back on to the street after this pandemic? Or will the minor miracle that they’ve been kept quite safe help us find a long-term solution? Our guest is Gareth Ward - NSW Minister for Families, Communities and Disability Service.

Today’s news headlines:

  • The Key Covid info you need to know today
    (COVIDsafe app, NewMarch House, UK reporting deaths)
  • Australia - China Relations hit new low
  • Australia’s Rental Affordability snapshot

On today’s Briefing we ask: How did state governments around the country act quickly to put 2000 fought sleepers into accomodation? Why hasn’t there been a Covid-19 outbreak in our homeless population? What is it like to be homeless and then be put up in hotel accomodation? What is going to happen to our homeless when this month is up? Will they just go back out onto the sleep or can we make the most of this opportunity and help them turn their lives around? If we were able to scale up so quickly, why didn’t we do this before? What is the cost of putting up a homeless person into temporary hotel accommodation? What will the government be doing to keep people safe within the shelters?
