This Town Told Tony Abbott To Leave. Now They Say He’s Fixing Their Problems
after the Northern Territory government and community representatives advised they were inappropriate.
Asked whether the new houses were a result of Abbott’s visit, a department of prime minister and cabinet spokesperson told BuzzFeed News Abbott"identified the impact of housing on school outcomes" during his visit. Scullion's spokesperson said that after his visit, Abbott"sought urgent options for the federal government to bypass the Territory Labor government to deliver a temporary housing solution as soon as possible".
A spokesperson for Indigenous affairs minister Nigel Scullion put the blame for the 10-year hold-up at the NT government’s feet, saying successive NT governments failed to deliver any of the federal funds, and that it was still unclear when they will"simply do the job they are paid to do and deliver the houses we have already funded".
"The Territory Labor government recognised the situation in Borroloola and deemed the need for improved housing more important than concerns over tenure," McCarthy’s spokesperson said."After the Territory’s announcement the Commonwealth made a new announcement to deliver 12 new homes ."
