"Advocacy groups are warning that thousands of young people living in community housing and low-rent private apartments face eviction if their Newstart and Youth Allowances are cut off as a result of new measures in the budget.

If anyone under the age of 30 loses their job they will have to wait six months before receiving any payments, for those without family support there will be limited options other than homelessness."
