Victoria needs an Office of the Homelessness Commissioner
Victoria needs an Office of the Homelessness Commissioner
The issue
I suggest there be created in Victoria, a position to be designated as the Office of the Homeless Commissioner.
It is trite to note that the plight of the homeless in Victoria is appalling and unacceptable to right-thinking members of the community. Homelessness is complex. In most cases, it is not simply an absence of a home. After all, the expression is homelessness, not houselessness. It is usually associated with, or the result of, other factors, or a combination of factors, including mental health issues, drug addiction, loss or separation from family, penury and family violence. Complex problems require complex solutions and the state of Victoria will be immeasurably better off, with a position designated as the Office of the Homeless Commissioner.
