The ACT government has said increasing the proportion of public housing in Canberra is not the purpose of its growth and renewal program after coming under fire by the Auditor-General.
The Auditor-General found, in a report earlier this year, that Housing ACT's program to increase the territory's public housing stock by 400 properties and renew a further 1000 had been riddled with delays due to a failed program to forcibly relocate tenants.
