State-Owned Beds And Modular Housing: Government Agrees Strategy For Asylum Seeker Accommodation

14 thousand State-owned beds will be provided by 2028.

Among the plans would be to develop modular housing on State-owned land, along with upgrading current IPAS centres, and the design and construction of new reception centres.
