Every Australian state and territory should commit to implementing the new National Construction Code.

We did it! but…

Thanks to the hard work of our supporters, we got mandatory minimum accessibility standards into the National Construction Code!

The standards will be in the National Construction Code from 1 May 2023 with a transition period until 1 October 2023. That means that from 1 October 2023, all new homes will have to be built to LHA Silver accessibility standards.

This was a huge win for us but unfortunately not every state and territory has committed to implementing the new National Construction Code.

What next

Find out if your state or territory has committed to implementing the new National Construction Code, and let them know you support accessible housing for ALL Australians.
