Minister Roberts told SBS Portuguese - as the host of the recent Brazil Showcase event at the NSW Parliament - that his main task in the government is to address the house affordability issue in the state and, particularly, in Sydney.

"Temos aqui um problema de acesso à casa própria porque todo mundo quer morar em Sydney", diz o ministro.

"Eu posso garantir às pessoas que este governo vai apresentar um plano, e isso será logo, que trata especialmente do problema da oferta de moradias", disse o ministro.
