Description: The Government's being told to be stricter on its state housing tenants. 
When Labour came to power in 2017, Kāinga Ora households owed nearly $750,000 dollars. 
But figures obtained by our newsroom under the Official Information Act show it soared to nearly $9 million last year. 
National's Housing spokesperson Nicola Willis told Mike Hosking the "no-evictions" policy is just letting people get away with it. 
“There are more than 25,000 New Zealanders on the waiting list, desperate for a state house, why do they have any less right to a home than people who won’t pay the rent?”
