The NSW Productivity Commissioner's conclusion that building closer to Sydney's CBD can save up to $75,000 in infrastructure costs per new home reinforces the Minns Government's commitment to rebalance housing targets around transport links to deliver more well-designed, well-located homes in places where people want to live.

KOTA KINABALU, May 21 (Bernama) -- The Sabah government will table the Anti-Party Hopping Bill during the four-day State Assembly sitting beginning tomorrow, said Chief Minister Datuk Seri Hajiji Noor. He said that contrary to allegations by the opposition, the state government did not purposely delay the tabling of the bill to prevent state elected representatives from switching sides. He said the bill involves an amendment to the state constitution and thus requires approval from the Yang di-Pertuan Agong and Yang Dipertua Negeri Sabah before it can be tabled in the State Legislative Assembly.
