    mm - just a couple of points

    "will be given homes found for them by charities, which will scour the private rental market."

    there is no doubt, that the landlord, will have the rent guaranteed - so that would put the as's in a better position, than dodgy tenants - to get a rental property - but that still puts pressure on the rental market.

    "They will receive a fortnightly income worth 89 per cent of the equivalent Centrelink benefit."

    with the rent paid for, then this is money for jam.

    from memory, when howard had the tpv's - there was no centrelink payments - and accommodation had to be provided by interested persons (could be wrong though)
