Director of Public Prosecutions for the ACT, Shane Drumgold on Homelessness

The nation's capital is well recognised for its higher-than-average income and living costs and the country's most expensive average rental pricing. Many Canberran's live a comfortable life with food on the table, roofs over their heads and the means to stay comfortable through the city's harsh winters. However, with the consistent increase in the average rental price and exorbitant cost of living, thousands of Canberran's are forced to the streets to suffer the capital's scorching hot summers and sub-freezing winters.

Shane Drumgold, the Director of Public Prosecutions for the ACT, speaks about the misconception regarding homelessness and how those of us lucky enough to have more than we require can help those less fortunate.
