A new report by the Urban Development Institute of Australia (UDIA) delivers a damning indictment of the Minns Labor Government, revealing that NSW is set to fall 40% short of its National Housing Accord Target. The “UDIA National Housing Pipeline” report highlights a staggering shortfall of 150,600 homes over the next five years, with only 3% of the pipeline development ready.
Leader of the Opposition Mark Speakman said the Minns Labor Government is not just out of touch, it’s out of its depth.
\u201cLabor is big on rhetoric and hopeless on delivery. Their failure to deliver on housing is a failure to deliver on a most basic human need,\u201d Mr Speakman said.
Shadow Minister for Planning and Public Spaces Scott Farlow said Chris Minns and his union mates haven\u2019t just dropped the ball, they\u2019ve shattered it.
\u201cThis is an unforgivable betrayal of over 150,000 families left in limbo. Labor\u2019s failure to heed industry warnings is driving us into a housing catastrophe, with building approvals at their lowest level in 12 years,\u201d Mr Farlow said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“With 30% of planned homes stalled by infrastructure delays, Chris Minns stands by as the ETU block power connections, driving up costs and threatening the entire housing pipeline. Instead of addressing the crisis, Labor cuts essential services, forcing families into overcrowded schools and hospitals. This is a catastrophic betrayal of every family in NSW.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
