Blow to Max Chandler-Mather as minor party fails to win any concessions from Labor in return for supporting bill

Earlier in November, the Greens substantially reduced their demands, calling instead for funding for an extra 25,000 social and affordable homes and a commitment that those whose income rises above the threshold do not need to pay back immediately.
