Mr. John Coleman:

I take the Minister's recent communication with the local authorities on the servicing of land as an expression of the sentiment the Senator mentioned.

To me it makes total sense that if we have land serviced and capable of development, it should be developed and we should build on it where we can, aligning with the population targets that have been sent out. I agree with the sentiment that we should have flexibility, given that we have a housing crisis, to develop those lands.
