The New South Wales planning minister, Paul Scully, has told property developers “don’t put up rubbish” proposals for “crap” housing that people don’t want to live in.
At the Property Council of Australia’s housing summit on Wednesday in Sydney, Scully also criticised local council zoning laws that prohibit terraces, townhouses and manor houses from being built, saying these denser dwelling types would help the state achieve its housing target.
