The Debate
What different members said when this bill was debated:
Donna Davis ALP
“I speak in support of the Community Housing Providers (Adoption of National Law) Amendment Bill 2025. The bill addresses one of the most pressing challenges facing our State, which is ensuring transparency and accountability in the delivery of affordable housing. It is disappointing that, while the member for Manly is in the Chamber, no other Opposition members are present for the debate.”
David Saliba ALP
“I speak in support of the Community Housing Providers (Adoption of National Law) Amendment Bill 2025. I commend the Minister for Housing for her work in this space. Affordable housing is crucial across New South Wales and Australia. The need for it is particularly acute in my electorate of Fairfield, where we have some of the highest levels of rental and mortgage stress in the State.”
Liesl Tesch ALP
“I am someone who grew up in 13 rental properties in 15 years. My mother, at the age of 50, bought an old Housing Commission house in Blackalls Park with a government housing loan, so affordable housing is very important to me. I support the Community Housing (Adoption of National Law) Amendment Bill 2025.”
David Mehan ALP
“I acknowledge and appreciate the contribution of the member for Manly, the shadow Minister, in representing the collective view of the Opposition. I note the reservations the member for Manly has articulated. I acknowledge and appreciate that. On behalf of the Government, I really do appreciate the support from the Opposition on this important bill.”

The bill seeks to close a longstanding regulatory gap requiring for-profit and not-for-profit providers of affordable housing dwellings that are subject to affordable housing conditions, whether required by their development consent or otherwise, to be appropriately regulated by the New South Wales Registrar of Community Housing and ensure compliance with affordable housing guidelines.
