PHOTO: BRIAR HUBBARD/STUFF – Housing and Urban Development Minister Phil Twyford says the new housing ministry will end the “fragmented current approach” to tackling housing issues.

A ministry dedicated to housing issues will be set up this year to advise the Government on its plans to make homes more affordable and reduce homelessness.

Housing and Urban Development Minister Phil Twyford has announced the Ministry of Housing and Urban Development, and said it would advise KiwiBuild.

It would act as the Government’s lead advisory group, providing advice on issues such as house prices, financing for first-home buyers and the quality of rental properties, he said.
