Chief Economist, Ben Burston is joined by Mark Blinco, National Head of Project Management at Knight Frank, where they explore whether current planning reforms, accelerated approval pathways and transport-oriented development are actually delivering new housing or simply shifting the pressure points.From rising construction costs and feasibility constraints to the tension between state and local government, this discussion cuts through policy ambition to examine what’s happening on the ground, where supply is emerging, and what developers are navigating as they try to bring projects to market.
