We've heard for many years now that too many Kiwis are locked out of the housing market. They will see this bill as a further opportunity to get a foot on the housing ladder and obtain a healthy and secure home to own or to rent. With this bill, we can look forward to more housing choices, like an extra home out the back for a parent or to provide a home for a renter or a first-home buyer; houses with easy transport options nearby so people can get to work, businesses, school, or the places that they recreate. We're going to have easier development options for papa kāinga and to support extended family and multigenerational living, and we will do this with increased amenity and, I think, better housing, because if people aren't spending as much on land, they can afford a better house. All of this is enabled; not required. The choice is for the landowner or developer.
