The Northern Territory Government is committed to improving housing in remote communities with the Our Community. Our Future. Our Homes. Remote Housing Investment Package. $1.1 billion from 2016-2017 – 2026-2017.  This investment has a focus on local decision making, engagement and planning with communities to identify their housing needs. To create sustainable local employment and training, and help develop Aboriginal business and economic development

The Northern Territory Government has committed to improving housing in remote communities with an investment of $1.1 billion over 2016-2017 – 2026-2027. The investment package is funded through four programs:

HOMEBUILD NT

$500 million over 10 years for the construction of new public housing.

ROOM TO BREATHE (RTB)

$200 million over 10 years to increase living spaces in existing homes.

REPAIRS AND MAINTENANCE (R&M)

$200 million over 10 years for repairs and maintenance.

GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEE HOUSING (GEH)

$200 million over 10 years to expand Government Employee Housing to include locally recruited NT Government employees in remote areas.

This is a Remote Housing Investment Package with a focus on local decision-making. Local decision-making means residents have input into what housing looks like in their community.

There are 73 communities throughout the Territory and not all communities can be engaged with at the same time – engagement, planning, development of construction contracts, and commencement of works will be rolled-out in phases in consultation with communities.

Although Our Community. Our Future. Our Homes. focuses on a range of housing solutions, the purpose of the program is to put people first, not assets. This is undertaken by working closely with communities to identify their housing needs, ensuring the work benefits Aboriginal businesses and leads to job creation and capacity development.
