Coalition links immigration caps to annual housing construction targets

Australia's opposition Coalition will link immigration caps to annual housing construction figures, opposition leader Angus Taylor announced Thursday. The plan ties net overseas migration directly to new homes completed, with 172,657 built last year versus 306,000 migrants arriving. Taylor also proposed a five billion dollar housing infrastructure fund and building code reforms to accelerate construction and address the rental crisis.
