Northern Territory

  • The NT Government is extending the period for the First Home Buyers $50,000 grant for another 12 months to stimulate the residential construction sector and attract families to the NT
  • The NT Government stood by its promise to fight anti-social behaviour when in office to help make the NT a safe place to live
  • Work was announced and started in the new Holtze subdivision. Civil works are well underway on The Parks community which will eventually house more than 500 families
  • BuildSkills NT is expanding the grandfathering period for an extra 12 months and fully funding the Diploma in Building Construction with HIA. Enrolment numbers have improved as a result
  • Secured ongoing NT and federal government funding to continue delivering training in Certificate II in Construction Pathways to school students and Certificate III in Carpentry to apprentices
  • Secured a partnership with SEDA College for Certificate II in Construction Pathways program in 2026
  • Legislation was passed introducing new ministerial powers and increased oversight of the operation of the Fidelity Fund. This will ensure greater transparency, a smoother release of certificates, and support builders in delivering much needed housing across the region.
