The Alliance wants every person to have a warm, safe home at a fair price. They plan a five-year public building programme run by Kāinga Ora and a new Ministry of Works to clear the social housing waiting list. Rents in social housing would be capped at 25 percent of income, and state-backed mortgages and co-ownership options would help working people buy a home. They also want to shift the economy away from relying on buying and selling houses.
“Every human being has the right to a warm, safe, and secure home at a fair price. Through four decades of neglect, privatisation, and inaction we have failed to maintain or improve the provision of public housing. We will reverse this trend.”
“The Alliance believes housing is a public good, and will implement lending criteria that favours owner-occupiers while discouraging property speculators.”
