Show Notes
The Government is changing the Building Act to address a shortage of supplies and long wait times for new products to be approved.
This will include green-lighting products with a reputable overseas certification and recognising approval schemes used in countries like Australia.
NZ Construction Industry Council chair Malcolm Fleming is pleased the Government is working to address this problem.
"In my view, this is the industry's biggest issue- starving demand for new construction. What's important also in the announcement from the Minister and Prime Minister earlier today is looking at broadening the product availability."
