An amendment has been tabled to the Planning and Development and Foreshore (Amendment) Bill by the Minister that seeks to speed up the delivery of social, affordable and cost-rental housing by exempting the delivery of this type of housing from the Part 8 process as long as it is commenced before the end of December 2024. The witnesses may not be aware of the amendment because it was only tabled quite recently.
