Minister for Planning and Housing, Anthony Roberts, said: “These figures show that for more than three years, approvals have exceeded 50,000, which is the longest run above 50,000 in this State’s history.
“These record housing approvals and completions are improving housing supply, which is a major contributor to home affordability. A major priority of this Government is to make home ownership a reality for as many citizens as possible.”
NSW Treasurer Dominic Perrottet added: “With a record $23.4 billion pipeline of residential construction underway - almost 83,000 homes - the NSW Government is leading the country when it comes to increasing housing supply.”
