Managing urbanisation by looking after smaller as well as larger centres, clarifying the political power of local government, and clearly identifying greenhouse gas emission implications of city-based development, are among crucial issues identified in a report on New Zealand produced in time for a United Nations conference this month
A new report shows there is a massive inequality concern that is rightly troubling many New Zealanders: housing. In short, New Zealand’s ‘inequality crisis’ is really a housing crisis.
Are we in danger of building socially stratified, exclusive cities of privilege?

Number of housing consents doubled but is it enough?
The number of new homes consented per capita has doubled over the past five years, but is only half the level seen at the peak of the 1970s building boom, Statistics New Zealand said today.

This number has been increasing since the June 2011 year, when only three new homes were consented for every thousand residents.

Are we really serious about a community housing sector
In 2007 this paper was written by Marc Slade for the Wellington Housing Trust , now Dwell Housing.
