Question
What is the total number of Keystart loans, by financial year, that have been granted to households who's previous housing tenure was in the public housing system?
Answered on 31 October 2017
The Department of Communities advises that it does not capture this level of data for all former public housing tenants taking out Keystart loans. However, the Department can provide data on former public housing tenancies that have been assisted to transition out of public housing into Keystart Home ownership through the Housing Transitions Unit, which works with tenants who no longer meet the eligibility criteria for public housing.
