The Young Nats have long called for better policy solutions for the housing emergency in Aotearoa New Zealand. As the generation of New Zealanders who are paying record-high rents and struggling to pull together a deposit for our first home we are acutely aware of the impact the current housing emergency is causing.

The Young Nats support this Bill addressing the housing emergency because buying a home in Aotearoa New Zealand or having an affordable rental property must not be an unachievable aspiration, but a feasible reality.
