Questions have been raised about where a Christchurch homeless community being booted out of a church carpark will go next.

City Council's issued an abatement notice requiring Avonside's Holy Trinity Church carpark to stop being used as a campground by 5pm.

An extension is possible if a new resource consent, allowing camping, is obtained.

Labour's Christchurch East MP Reuben Davidson told John MacDonald the problem isn't the people, but the fact we don't have enough housing.

He says we all have role to play in addressing homelessness.

National’s Vanessa Weenink told MacDonald there is a role for the city council to play, to potentially build more community housing and boarding houses.

She says there needs to be a variety of options, as there’s currently not enough choice nor housing stock.
