In this episode of The Home Ground, we chat with Graeme Samuel about the massive shake-up coming to Australia’s environmental and planning laws.We explore what’s broken, what’s finally being fixed and why clearer rules and faster approvals can actually lead to better outcomes for both the environment and development.It’s a straight-talking look at the reforms that will shape how Australia grows over the next decade.We also dive into the housing crisis, why supply has completely stalled, how politics, planning systems and bad incentives keep getting in the way and what real change needs to look like.Finally, we unpack what’s holding Australia back and what must happen if we genuinely want more homes, smarter policy and a country that can actually get things done.
