HIA has been proud to be a key organisation working closely with the Tasmanian Government to provide education, training and support for men and women wishing to start their exciting career in the growing residential construction industry.
“An incoming government must continue to invest in residential construction training and apprenticeships, to support and grow the residential construction industry. This is essential for Tasmania to build the housing for our future, to meet the demand for housing that has not been met with sufficient supply.
“Extending the High Vis Army initiative to the plumbing and electrical industry associations is a sensible approach, recognising the integral role that all trades and professions play in developing our built environment.
“HIA continues to encourage all parties to focus election commitments and policies to prioritise incentives, and support, for the residential construction sector.
“HIA’s members are ready and equipped to build the housing of the future for Tasmanians, to meet the demand for new homes and ease the current supply constraints impacting on Tasmanian families,” Mr Price concluded.

State Budget is a missed opportunity to stimulate housing
The Treasurer has handed down the 2025/26 Tasmanian Budget. The Budget focuses on alleviating cost of living pressures, health, education and infrastructure, while mapping out a path to a fiscal balance surplus in 2032/2033.
HIA supports bipartisan approach to planning reform NSW
“The NSW planning system has failed to deliver the number of homes we desperately need and we fully support removing the politics from housing, to address this growing crisis,” said Brad Armitage, HIA Executive Director NSW.
Opposition pledge to remove stamp duty for first home buyers welcomed (Vic)
The Victorian Opposition’s announcement that it would remove stamp duty for first-home buyers spending up to $1 million on a new or existing home if elected at next year’s state election, is a positive step towards improving home affordability,” says Steven Wojtkiw, HIA Victoria Deputy Executive Director.
