Thanks to the hard work of our supporters, we got mandatory minimum accessibility standards into the National Construction Code!
The standards will be in the National Construction Code from 1 May 2023 with a transition period until 1 October 2023. That means that from 1 October 2023, all new homes will have to be built to LHA Silver accessibility standards.
This was a huge win for us but unfortunately not every state and territory has committed to implementing the new National Construction Code.
