It was a pleasure to see our National committee members this month at the NSC. A good chance to catch up and see what issues each region is currently facing, but also catching up at a social level and networking. The majority of conversations at the NSC were around hot topics including Silicosis, NCC, land availability, Housing affordability and availability, changes in IR laws, Immigration and Training. Each committee enjoyed discussions on these and more with some robust conversations only highlighting the passion and importance of what is at stake.
Silicosis was such a delicate subject and without further guidance or information from governing sources, a decision on HIA's stance in this was not possible until this becomes available. HIA position statements will be reviewed at Regional Committee meetings and a recommendation will be made to National Policy Congress (NPC).

The Housing Industry Association (HIA) has undertaken an assessment of National Cabinet’s 10 point National Planning Reform Blueprint including identifying, and in some cases re-defining, the key planning reform measures needed from the Blueprint to enable the delivery of National Cabinet’s Housing Accord target of building 1.2 million homes over the next 5 years.
New home building set to increase
“It is nine months since the RBA’s last rate rise and market confidence is returning. It is only the heavily taxed markets of NSW and Victoria that are yet to see a trough in detached home building in 2024,” stated HIA Chief Economist, Tim Reardon
New silica laws apply from 1 September
Following the introduction of the engineered stone ban around the country earlier this year, new rules when working with silica products will come into effect from 1 September.
ACT housing outlook remains bleak
“Detached home building in the nation’s capital is constrained, sitting at record lows, with the current affordability crisis expected to persist for years,” stated HIA Executive Director, Greg Weller.
