Housing Minister Chris Bishop says six major changes to housing reflect the needs of a modern population.
They'll let cities expand at the fringes by stopping councils setting fixed rural-urban boundaries, and requiring them to plan for growth 30 years ahead.
Minimum floor area and balcony requirements are being abolished for apartments.
ZB senior political correspondent Barry Soper explains the benefits of these changes.
