西澳大利亚州的母亲在提供安全的替代住房之前,尽管政府下令放弃补救,但拒绝离开其模具充斥的公共住房住所。 A mother in Western Australia refuses to leave her mould-infested public housing home until safe alternative housing is provided, despite a government order to vacate for remediation.

在西澳大利亚州Balga的母亲Laura Western表示, 她的孩子持续咳嗽和流鼻血已有四年, Laura Western, a mother in Balga, Western Australia, says her children have suffered persistent coughing and nosebleeds for four years due to severe mould in their public housing home, which she reported in 2022. 尽管仍然存在健康问题,住房和工程部于1月宣布该住房适于居住,并发布法律通知,要求她在3月中旬前撤离,以便进行补救。 Despite ongoing health issues, the Department of Housing and Works declared the home habitable in January and issued legal notices demanding she vacate by mid-March for remediation. 在提供替代住房之前,西方拒绝进入,理由是无担保财产的安全风险以及石棉的存在。 Western refuses entry until alternative housing is provided, citing safety risks from an unsecured property and the presence of asbestos. 她说,一再提出的临时住宿请求没有得到答复,而承包商注意到,拆除模具需要大量侵入性工作。 She says repeated requests for temporary accommodation went unanswered, while contractors note mould removal requires extensive, invasive work. 该部门维护的工作可以在一天内安全地完成,并声称它提供了安全信息,但西方质疑拖延和警告对其子女的长期健康后果。 The department maintains the work can be done safely in one day and claims it has provided safety information, but Western questions the delay and warns of long-term health consequences for her children.
