I appreciate that.

Does the regulator, AHBRA, have the powers it needs? How can we be certain that the more than 400 AHBs currently have the appropriate regulatory oversight? I have to confess that I did not quite get that from our session with the Charities Regulator and AHBRA. It may be that further legislation or powers are required or resources are required. Can the Department give us confidence that AHBRA has the powers and resources it needs to make sure we can be satisfied and have confidence in the AHBs, which are doing important work in providing social housing?
