Mr. C. B. Cutler M.L.A. for the Country Party warns that a housing shortage in rural New South Wales is pushing people from villages to Sydney and coastal cities. He argues state policy favors cities, with the Housing Commission building mainly in urban areas. He calls for more building materials production to curb rising costs and housing scarcity.
