THE NSW Government is fast-tracking housing approvals by cutting red tape and ensuring faster water and wastewater infrastructure connections. The Housing Approval Reform Action Plan—a collaboration between DCCEEW, Sydney Water, and WaterNSW—aims to streamline approvals, expand risk-based triaging, and enhance industry engagement. With a $2.2B investment in infrastructure, the plan supports faster construction while maintaining environmental sustainability, reinforcing the government’s commitment to addressing the housing crisis.
