HIA and our members provided significant input to the Commission to support the preparation of the report, “I applaud the Commissioner for listening to feedback from actual builders on the ground and giving them the opportunity to provide input into a review of this nature,” said David Bare HIA Executive Director NSW.
“The report picks up on many of the core issues facing the construction industry; and brings more focus on what the government needs to do to support the industry to deliver housing supply for NSW. We are pleased to see many of our positions reflected in the recommendations from the Productivity and Equality Commission report.”
This includes the need to:
Make developments more feasible, including those within the transport-oriented development zones.
“Despite an initial intention to focus on non-planning barriers, it is clear the Commissioner could not ignore the current issues within the NSW planning system that stifle development and limit the potential of recent housing supply initiatives such as Transport-Oriented Development.
“Whilst the Commissioner’s earlier reports have been focused on higher density in established areas, there is no doubt it is critical we have an equally strong focus on greenfield development to deliver the housing supply we need. HIA believes there needs to be a focus on increasing housing supply across the housing continuum, rather than focusing on one housing segment.
“The challenge is now with Premier Minns to see how many of these recommendations will be adopted and how quickly they can be implemented by his government,” Mr Bare concluded.
The Housing Industry Association (HIA) is pleased to announce the appointment of Benjamin Price as its new Executive Director for Tasmania,” HIA Managing Director, Jocelyn Martin announced today.
The Housing Industry Association (HIA) will join senior industry leaders in Melbourne this week for a national roundtable convened by the Hon Clare O’Neil MP, Minister for Housing, Minister for Homelessness and Minister for Cities, focused on unlocking productivity across the housing sector.
HIA has consulted with its members who are active in land development in Regional NSW to provide comments on the Consultation paper and those comments are presented in this submission letter.
The Housing Industry Association (HIA) has welcomed the news that the ACT Government has abandoned plans to introduce the Independent Planning Advisory Service (IPAS).
