"Really tricky": How will the Kāinga Ora shake up work?

The Government’s shaking up social housing, yesterday announcing a plan to get Kāinga Ora back on track. 

They're set to sell off high-priced homes in an effort to bring its books down, the plan including the sale of around 900 homes a year. 

The money will then go to more low-cost, denser places with greater demand, as well as more single person dwellings as opposed to larger homes.  

Kāinga Ora Board Chair Simon Moutter joined Kerre Woodham to discuss what the changes mean for the agency and for those in need of social housing.
