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.

The government said it would work with states and territories to pause further changes to the National Construction Code.

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.

They can help the builder with the paperwork and make sure the builder is adhering to all relevant guidelines.
