*** Solution to housing crisis??***![]()
What’s Being Proposed?![]()
From current reporting, the video likely references key reforms aimed at easing Australia’s housing shortage through regulatory change. Here’s a breakdown of the most recent proposals and expert perspectives:![]()
1. Regulatory Red Tape Reform![]()
The Business Council of Australia (BCA) has released a 65-page “Better Regulation Report” outlining how excessive regulation—over 80,000 rules costing more than $110 billion—hamstrings housing supply, productivity, investment, and approvals . It recommends:
• Consolidating and simplifying environmental and licensing approvals,
• Streamlining foreign investment processing,
• Removing redundant low-revenue tariffs,
• Establishing a national single portal and appointing a dedicated regulatory-reform cabinet minister .![]()
Treasurer Jim Chalmers has also stressed the urgent need to overhaul the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation (EPBC) Act, citing how costly delays are keeping people from housing—and could yield around 30,000 new homes more quickly if reformed .![]()
2. Modular and Prefabricated Housing![]()
New approaches like modular or kit homes are being encouraged. For example:
• Queensland-based Instant Expandable Homes NQ produces affordable modular container homes, though it still faces certification and accessibility regulation hurdles .
• The federal government is investing A$54 million in prefabricated and modular home manufacturing, tying it to reducing regulatory and site constraints .
• Additionally, researchers highlight how granny flats and other small-scale dwellings can supplement housing stock efficiently and affordably  .![]()
3. Workforce Development & Skilled Migration![]()
Labor’s plan includes fundingfree TAFE and apprenticeship incentives to boost construction labor capacity—key for meeting their 1.2 million homes target by 2029 (with 55,000 aimed at social and affordable housing) .![]()
4. Infrastructure Investment![]()
Addressing the root causes of stalled builds, such as missing infrastructure, is viewed as vital. The Coalition previously proposed A$5 billion to fast-track greenfield developments by funding roads, sewers, and utilities—and to curb National Construction Code changes that drive costs up . Developers like James Fitzgerald argue that sluggish local approvals are the real jam in housing delivery—akin to inviting more guests without adding food .![]()
What’s the “One Move”?![]()
Putting it all together, the “one move” highlighted likely revolves around cutting the regulatory red tape—simplifying environmental laws, streamlining approvals, and facilitating modular housing. When paired with infrastructure investment and workforce strategies, these changes could unlock housing at scale.![]()
Issue being addressed:![]()
Approvals & Environmental Red Tape![]()
Housing Supply Boost ![]()
Infrastructure Bottlenecks![]()
Workforce Shortages![]()
These measures align with the Albanese government’s broader strategy to build 1.2 million homes by 2029 while also tackling supply, zoning, investment, and productivity constraints ![]()
