A Salvation Army director says its housing unit doesn't have the space or resources to take in more evicted Kāinga Ora tenants.

Ian Hutson, Social Policy and Parliamentary Unit director, says he's concerned homelessness will increase under the Government's stricter approach to disruptive tenants.

Hutson spoke to Ingrid Hipkiss.
