2015年的代際報告預測澳洲人口到2050年達到3070萬，未來40年澳洲需要增加900多萬住宅才能跟上人口增長步伐。房地產行業警告說，這為建築業提供了一個巨大的機遇，但也卻非易事，除非增加基礎設施投資總價、改革稅法和減少監管法律條款。

據澳洲金融評論報導，2015年的代際報告預測，澳洲人口將在未來40年每年增長約1.3%，到2050年達到3070萬。

房地產行業協會（HIA）產業政策和媒體總裁沃爾夫（Graham Wolfe）說，住宅建設提供了住房解決方案，提高了房價可負擔性並創造就業機會。他說：“政府必須關注經濟投資和社會基礎設施，增加住宅用地供應並移除開發系統中的障礙。”

澳洲建築商協會（MBA）總裁哈尼施（Wilhelm Harnisch）則表示，另一種增加住房的方法是激勵地方市政府，MBA已經提出一個想法，即聯邦政府向市政府提供競爭性撥款，作為釋放更多土地和利用（城中舊房被清除後可蓋新房的）棕色地帶建房的獎勵。

澳洲都市發展協會（UDIA）會長謝巴特（Cameron Shephard ）說，代際報告中強調了需要提高生產力，新住房和基礎設施建設將推動新的就業機會、經濟增長並改善政府財政狀況。他說：“增加城市基礎設施（如道路、公共交通、公用事業和社區基礎設施）投資，以及改革低效稅收如印花稅，對提高生產率、支持就業並維持我們的生活標准至關重要。”

Another nine million homes will be needed by 2055!

by Rebecca Thistleton

The nation will need to more than double its housing stock over the next 40 years to keep pace with population growth and capitalise on boosting economic growth through more construction jobs.

Building another nine million homes presents a big opportunity for construction, but will prove a tough feat unless infrastructure investment rises, taxation is reformed and red tape is cut, the country's housing industry warned.

The 2015 intergenerational report predicted Australia's population would grow about 1.3 per cent annually over the next 40 years, to 39.7 million by 2055.

Housing Industry Association chief executive for industry policy and media Graham Wolfe said residential construction offered solutions for housing the population, improving affordability and creating jobs.

"Governments must focus on investment in economic and social infrastructure, increasing the supply of residential land and removing impediments in the planning system," he said.

Another way to increase housing would be to incentivise local councils, Master Builders Australia chief Wilhelm Harnisch said. The MBA has floated the idea of federally funded competition-style payments to councils as a reward for releasing more land and using brownfield sites for housing.

"Master Builders backs the view of the intergenerational report that more accountability and less waste and duplication must be required from these levels of government," Mr Harnisch said.

"The report also highlights that more brownfield sites will be essential to meet increased demand for multi-density housing, particularly as Baby Boomers seek to increasingly 'right size' in response to their changing lifestyles."

UDIA national president Cameron Shephard said state and federal governments must work together to deliver infrastructure and cut red tape and inefficient taxes such as stamp duty to encourage new home building.

The need to improve productivity was highlighted in the report and new housing and infrastructure construction would drive new jobs, economic growth, and improve government finances, Mr Shephard said.

"Greater investment in new urban infrastructure such as roads, public transport, utilities and community infrastructure, as well reform of inefficient taxes such as stamp duty, will be essential to improve productivity, support jobs, and maintain our standard of living," he said.

Real Estate Institute of Australia chief executive Amanda Lynch said the gap between expenditure and revenue would continue to widen unless taxation was changed.
