Better Housing Services for the NT

Recent signers:

The Issue

We need action. Families need homes. Communities need respect. It’s time to clean up this mess.

This petition calls on the CLP Government to urgently address the neglect and deterioration of public housing across the Northern Territory and to take immediate action to fix and maintain safe, liveable homes.

The Petitioners therefore ask that the Northern Territory Legislative Assembly: 

• Urge the Northern Territory Government to take immediate action to ensure all Territory Housing properties are maintained to a safe, secure, and liveable standard.

• Ensure that both urban and remote housing is properly maintained, with all repairs and maintenance requests completed in a timely manner

• Prevent public housing properties from being left vacant, derelict, or unusable for extended periods, particularly given excessive waiting times for housing.

• Require clear commitments and timelines for when new builds, rebuilds, renovations, and repairs will be delivered.
