Hon Dr MEGAN WOODS (Minister of Housing): I've seen a range of comments about the Government's $3.8 billion Housing Acceleration Fund, and other supply side measures announced on Tuesday, from a number of stakeholders, both in the media and to whom I have spoken directly. Shamubeel Eaqub said the acceleration fund and the Kāinga Ora land programme are "big deals" and that "the infrastructure money will be welcome in many fast-growing or small communities that can't afford new infrastructure". Master Builders CEO, David Kelly, said, "The Government is [now] seeing housing as a key part of our critical infrastructure.", and "provision for infrastructure funding to support … homes and developments is also a positive step."
