Some actual public housing expenditure is welcome, but for it to be 10% of the handout of developers is problematic in the extreme.
With how damaging the Victorian model has proven here and the near complete inaction on public housing it has whitewashed I'm inclined to think this was a policy better sunk entirely. It spends money and commits capacity to developers that we need to build true public housing.
