Contributing to the Government's outcomes and priorities

The Department of Housing's goals primarily contribute to the Queensland Government's community outcome of a fair, socially cohesive and culturally vibrant society, and the Government's priority of improving Queenslanders' access to affordable housing.

The department's goals in 2007-08 were:

  • delivering integrated social housing to low-income households for the duration of their need,
  • providing support for low to moderate income households in the private market, and
  • helping to build sustainable communities.

The department's six outputs contribute to the Queensland Government's outcomes, not only through the direct provision of housing assistance and services, but also by working with, and influencing, the broader housing system.

The department's outputs in 2007-08 were:

  • Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Housing,
  • Public Rental Housing,
  • Community Housing,
  • Private Housing,
  • Home Purchase Assistance, and
  • Community Renewal.
