“The unveiling of the final phase of Honeysuckle’s redevelopment is a standout example of the kind of large-scale, master planned development Australia needs to meet growing housing demand.
“Delivering around 1,000 new homes in a well-connected, mixed-use precinct will make a meaningful contribution to housing supply in the Newcastle region.
“The staged delivery of the Honeysuckle HQ over the next 15 years also provides the industry confidence to invest in skills, capacity, and innovation. It’s this kind of forward planning that supports a strong and sustainable housing industry.
“In addition, the commercial, retail and public spaces will have a significant impact on broader economic activity, demonstrating how strategic projects can deliver benefits well beyond housing alone.
“The scale and ambition of the project is exactly what is needed to address ongoing housing shortages while creating thriving, integrated communities,” Mr Jennion concluded.

Member information: Fuel Surcharges and the Road Transport Order
In April 2026 an order requiring primary and secondary parties in road transport contractual chains to review and adjust transport rates fortnightly to recover increased fuel costs was handed down by the FWC. This requirement switched off automatically in the week ending 5 June 2026, when the weekly average national terminal gate diesel price fell below $2.00 per litre but did not revoke the order. HIA breaks down what this means for your business.

National Tradies Day - Tradies will build Tasmanias future
Tasmania's home builders have marked National Tradies Day by putting the case for a trade career to young Tasmanians, saying the trades offer one of the strongest pathways in the state to secure work, real money from day one, and a career that technology is far more likely to help than replace.
