Rules are being slashed for homeowners building small garden sheds and sleep-outs.
The Government today announced there will soon be no boundary distance rules for detached buildings smaller than 10 square metres.
Currently, the distance must at least match their height.
Construction Minister Chris Penk explained that the rules needed to be updated for people trying to do more with less space.
