2. State Environmental Planning Policy (Housing for Seniors and People with a Disability) 2004 (Seniors SEPP);

3. State Environmental Planning Policy No 70 – Affordable Housing (Revised Schemes) (SEPP 70);

4. State Environmental Planning Policy No 21—Caravan Parks; and

5. State Environmental Planning Policy No 36—Manufactured Home Estates.

A Housing SEPP consultation draft has been prepared to provide all stakeholders the opportunity to provide feedback on new and amended planning provisions prior to the making of the Housing SEPP.

The Housing SEPP is intended to be finalised in October 2021.
