“Complying development allows fast-track assessment of housing projects, with CDC approvals taking a fraction of the time it takes to get a Council DA. It also provides a more certain approval pathway for developers.
Based on data from the NSW Government, councils take an average 134 days to approve a DA for medium density housing, with a CDC for the same development type taking an average of 34 days, which is four times faster.
“HIA welcomes proposals from government to increase the use of complying development for straight forward, low-risk developments, as this will free up councils to focus on more complex assessments, with that shift not coming soon enough,” said Mr Armitage.
“Over the years, HIA has successfully advocated for improvements to CDC pathways, but there is scope for much more, including:
“We know that complying development works and support any government commitment to expanding the complying development pathway. This will open doors to more homes faster,” concluded Mr Armitage.
“The median price of residential land sold nationally jumped by 6.8 per cent over the 2024/25 financial year, more than three times faster than consumer price inflation over the same period,” stated HIA Chief Economist Tim Reardon.
“The Housing Industry Association (HIA) is calling on all parties to park the games and fast track the delivery of the long overdue EPBC reforms by the end of this year,“ HIA Managing Director, Jocelyn Martin said today.

“The announcement that the NSW Government will fast-track a major rezoning of Gosford City Centre, unlocking 1,900 new homes across 283 hectares, provides an exciting opportunity for the Central Coast,” commented HIA Hunter Executive Director, Craig Jennion.
