flag New South Wales is overhauling planning laws to boost housing delivery and meet a 377,000-home target by 2029.

flag New South Wales is overhauling its planning laws in the most significant reform in nearly 50 years, aiming to boost housing delivery and meet the 377,000-home target by 2029 under the National Housing Accord. flag The changes include a new "targeted assessment pathway," a Development Co-ordination Authority to serve as a "single front door" for builders and councils, and streamlined approval processes for certain developments. flag The reforms seek to reduce delays, simplify standards, and encourage dispute resolution outside the Land and Environment Court. flag The government is pushing for bipartisan support, with backing from housing and development groups, though opposition remains uncertain.
