  The government said it would work with states and territories to pause further changes to the National Construction Code. It would then consult on ways to streamline the code, including the use of artificial intelligence to help tradies, small business and households in using the three-volume, 2000-page code.

  “Chief executive Mike Zorbas described the announcements as “sensible” and a “win” for housing supply.

  “Let’s also put AI to work turbocharging housing delivery. A smart rollout of AI into planning and assessment systems will give decision-makers the clarity they need and save valuable time in delivering new homes,” he said…

  Given all the buzz words and dog whistles in their quotes, I’m going to assume this legislation will be ghost written by housing corpos, and will lead to lower quality houses, more approvals in fire and flood zones, etc.

  This implies Australia’s million average home value is caused by paper work! It is not realisitic. No government is going to significantly mess with house prices while home owners are the majority. Even if they build more, they will just increase immigration.
