Last week it was reported that the waitlist for public housing is up 50 percent on this time last year with 18,000 people currently registered. Jemima Huston speaks to Ronji Tanielu who is a lawyer and principal policy advisor for the Salvation Army about the increase in the public housing waitlist.
