Albanese Government invests $53.9 million in Western Australia social housing upgrades
What happened
The Albanese Government announced a $53.9 million investment for energy efficiency upgrades across more than 4,000 social housing properties in regional and remote Western Australia. These upgrades, which include ceiling insulation, will be delivered over five years in areas such as the Kimberley, Pilbara, Gascoyne, Mid-West, and Goldfields. This funding builds upon a previous $63.2 million investment in the region.

Why it matters
The investment provides funding for energy efficiency improvements in older social housing, which is expected to reduce energy consumption and lower electricity bills for tenants. The initiative supports both Closing the Gap commitments and Australia's emissions reduction goals.
Anthony Albanese governs housing policy while the Australian Bureau of Statistics provides data on national housing market trends.
