National Party Housing Spokesman Murray McCully said today
that the Opposition would be closely monitoring the
additional funds allocated to high need housing areas.
"In
particular we will be monitoring the suspensory loans as
they are difficult to administer fairly.
"Suspensory loans
are really grants rather than repayable loans. We will be
looking carefully at how this program operates to see that
it is fair to everyone involved," he said.
If you're using Scoop for work, your organisation needs to pay a small license fee with Scoop Pro. We think that's fair, because your organisation is benefiting from using our news resources. In return, we'll also give your team access to pro news tools and keep Scoop free for personal use, because public access to news is important!
