Member for Nanango Deb Frecklington says it’s encouraging to see new social housing developments taking shape across the South Burnett, as the Crisafulli Government continues delivering on its commitment to boost housing supply for local families.

The South Burnett currently has five social housing projects underway across Nanango and Kingaroy. Four of these developments are expected to be completed by mid‑2026, delivering 38 new homes, with a further six homes forecast for completion by the end of the year.

Ms Frecklington said the progress reflects the Government’s determination to support vulnerable Queenslanders and strengthen regional communities.

“These new homes will make a real difference for those who need safe, secure accommodation,” said Deb

“We’re committed to delivering more social housing, delivering it faster, and ensuring our community benefits from this investment.”

“For too long, Queensland’s growing population wasn’t matched with the planning or delivery needed to keep up”.

“We’re seeing strong progress – and we know there is more to do” Deb said.

“We’ll keep working to ensure every Queenslander has access to a safe place to call home.”

The Crisafulli Government is delivering on its Securing Our Housing Foundation Plan with more than 2,020 social and affordable homes already completed and 3,477 under contract statewide.
