Pressure is mounting on NSW and WA to adopt minimum accessibility standards for new housing after Treasury found that consistent implementation of NCC is crucial to improve construction sector productivity.

Last week a report from Treasury emphasised the efficiency benefits when the National Construction Code is implemented consistently across the country. Yet NSW and WA are undermining this by dragging their heels on implementing the Livable Housing Design Standard. Not only are these jurisdictions continuing to build homes that aren’t fit for all Australians – they are also undermining an efficient and productive construction sector.

There’s no more time for delay. NSW and WA should commit to accessible homes for all Australians.
