Why it matters

The path is household purchasing power: a completed $10 billion social-and-affordable housing fund.

What the sources establish

Federal Register of Legislation carries the official instrument or communique. ABC News records the same dated act independently.

Established: 28 September 2023 Royal Assent after 14 September passage, independently reported.

Not established: that 30,000 homes were thereby completed that Thursday, or a unique later rent coefficient.

The Governor-General assented. He led Cabinet. The Future Fund Board invests. States deliver dwellings.. A later repeal, court stay, or successor order would be a different Fact with a different date. That pair identifies The Housing Australia Future Fund Act 2023 receives Royal Assent, not a later speech about The Housing Australia Future Fund Act 2023 receives Royal Assent.

Co-authors and later implementers named in Context remain on the file. If a later repeal, stay, or successor instrument exists, it needs its own date and its own row. The contribution described on this Person row is limited to Parliament passed. The Governor-General assented. He led Cabinet. The Future Fund Board invests. States deliver dwellings. That limit is the alternative to treating office-holding as authorship of every later series.
