Willis:housing policy gives flexibility to where councils build

From First Up, 5:43 am on 30 May 2023

National has withdrawn its support from the bi-partisan housing agreement it helped draw up with Labour, instead opting to come up with its own policy. Instead of three-storey buildings, National would allow councils around the country to do what they want - either increase density or develop farmland. National's deputy leader Nicola Willis and the party's land information spokesperson Judith Collins helped draft the agreement. Nathan Rarere asked Nicola Willis why the flipflop.
