PM's "open to going harder" on Kāinga Ora tenants' behaviour

Christopher Luxon says the Government's making its expectations clear when it comes to behaviour in social housing. 

Kāinga Ora is formally warning seven times as many tenants as it was last financial year. 

It's evicted 63 tenants in 10 months for disruptive behaviour. 

The Prime Minister told Mike Hosking the enforcement action is sending a clear message about what is and isn't acceptable. 

He says it's a privilege to be in a state house funded by the taxpayer, and unruly behaviour isn't okay.
