Labour Column Reports Housing Progress in Victoria
In Victoria 74 co op housing societies are registered with seven awaiting registration. Government capital reaches £7 525 000 and more housing acts may be needed. Metropolitan members total 6 622 with 60 advances on homes built. Processing times for under 0 per cent loans are four to five days, and three to four weeks for loans needing state indemnities. A Labour social on November 6 will celebrate local election gains and the Senate victory. A violent attack on Percy Cleary MLAC is noted and a ballot on affiliation of the Victorian Teachers Union with the Trades Hall Council is discussed amid calls for broader educational reform.
