The NSW Government is releasing a discussion paper and seeking community input which will inform a comprehensive review of Short-Term rental Accommodation (STRA) in NSW.
This is an important next step as the NSW Government continues to look at ways to address the
housing crisis in NSW.
Led by the Minister for Housing, Minister for Homelessness Rose Jackson, the four-week publicconsultation opens today with the release of a discussion paper and an online questionnaire.
Through this review the NSW Government will work with all stakeholders to ensure outcomes
contribute meaningfully to increasing housing affordability, and stability in NSW.
Minister for Planning and Public Spaces Paul Scully said, “We’re in a housing crisis, so it’s important we look at every available option to boost housing supply, including a shift from non-hosted short-term rentals to long term rentals.”
Minister for Housing and Minister for Homelessness Rose Jackson said, “All options are on the table and we are keen to hear from the community on how various aspects of regulatory and revenue measures can be designed to get the best outcome.
“This review will inform our approach to make better use of all forms of housing, including short
term rentals, vacant property and holiday homes.”
