The Government’s proposing changes to the Resource Management Act and the Building Act – to help make it easier to build granny flats.
This follows a commitment in the National-NZ First coalition agreement, which requires the government to " Make it easier to build granny flats or other small structures up to 60 square metres, requiring only an engineer's report".
Housing Minister Chris Bishop told Heather du Plessis-Allan “I think it’s going to appeal to a lot of different people – it's about housing supply.”
Bishop said “These are structures designed to get more people into warm, dry houses.”
