HIA Executive Director, Stuart Collins, said, “This important announcement by Minister Ellis, will go a long way to reducing delays and the cost of building new homes and renovations.
“Recently HIA attended a Building and Construction Industry Ministerial Roundtable that focussed on approaches to boosting Tasmania’s housing supply. At the top of HIA’s list was the removal of planning red tape.
“HIA has also shared with the Tasmanian government its Planning Scorecard which outlines the State’s progress, and the key areas of improvement that could help it to reach its Housing Accord targets. Again, cutting planning red tape is a key priority.
“There are clear signs that Government is listening to industry, with this latest announcement following on from plans to release more greenfield land through expansion of the Urban Growth Boundary, and incentives for medium and high density projects.
“However, the job is not yet done. It is imperative that the government continues to work with HIA in identifying and eliminating other blockages in the planning system that are stymieing housing supply,” concluded Mr Collins.
