The right to housing, with a former Supreme Court judge
Australia’s “housing disaster” could soon turn catastrophic, says former Victorian Supreme Court justice Kevin Bell.
To counter this, the nation needs not just legislative action but also a reframing of our collective mindset to view housing not as the great Australian dream but as a fundamental right.
In this special episode, hosted by Jerome Doraisamy, the editor of SPI’s sister brand Lawyers Weekly, he is joined by the Honourable Kevin Bell AO KC, former justice of the Supreme Court of Victoria and patron of Tenants Victoria.
Discussing why housing is no longer a dream for Australians but rather a “nightmare”, the former judge reveals his upbringing in social housing and motivation to see an overhaul of our housing system.
