Federal election 2022: Where do the major parties stand on policy issues?
ABCThe parties have spent the past six weeks pitching to Australians their ideas for the future, and what policies they'd introduce if elected. Labor Policy: Labor plans to effectively scrap the Coalition's agriculture visa and instead set up a new agriculture stream within the existing Pacific Australia Labour Mobility scheme. Labor policy: Labor's main housing policy is a new "shared-equity" scheme, that would see it essentially buying 30 or 40 per cent of a property with the owner. Greens policy: The Greens want to build one million affordable public and community houses over the next 20 years and give $7 billion in capital grants to improve existing public housing over the next decade. Refugees Coalition policy: The Coalition announced in the last budget that it would offer an extra 16,500 humanitarian visas over the next four years for people fleeing Afghanistan.
