2024 in Review, 2025 in Sight: National Planning Changes

Amidst the national housing crisis, increasing supply and availability is an ongoing critical challenge facing our cities.

Significant planning changes have been implemented to boost supply and ensure timely delivery ahead of next year’s federal election.

Since the Planning Reform Blueprint’s release late last year, 2024 has seen the rollout of key initiatives including the Urban Policy Forum, National Urban Policy, and Housing Support Program. These efforts, along with the actions outlined in the Blueprint, have sharpened the national focus on tackling the housing crisis.

Our experts nationwide have analysed the changes implemented across each state and territory over the past year in response to the Blueprint. Based on this analysis, our team has predicted what we can expect in the upcoming year.
