Draft Housing SEPP recently exhibited: The state government is looking to make it easier to deliver a greater choice and supply of housing so that we can meet the needs of a growing population. The proposed Housing State Environmental Planning Policy will help provide more housing options to meet the changing needs of people living in NSW. They recently asked for feedback about whether the draft provisions will deliver the right balance of certainty and flexibility for all stakeholders.

It is believed that these proposed changes will see a decrease in the size of dwellings but with more bedrooms. Thus increasing the density of the population.
