Housing aid promised for Wellington Aborigines

The State Housing Commission pledged to assist in housing the aborigines at Wellington, with funding in the 1949-50 Loan Estimates. The Housing Commission would work with the Aborigines Welfare Board to acquire areas and build homes. Water supply at the Wellington Aborigines Reserve failed but was repaired by residents and is periodically overseen by police-authorized plumbers to prevent recurrence.
