| Message | Mr Speaker, the GNP will not support this bill - the problem with rent control is not how to find a proper way of imposing it, but its universally negative economic effects such as depressing supply and leading people to shy away from investing in real estate. We commend our coalition partners for their concern over rent levels, as this is an issue that is of great relevance for many working families, but we nevertheless believe that the proposed measure would hurt the very same people it seeks to help. Catherine Breckinridge MLC Minister of Trade and Industry Chairwoman of the Grand National Party |
