Queensland’s housing system is under unprecedented pressure. In the face of renewed population growth, the chronic undersupply of housing, particularly social and affordable housing, is escalating the scale of housing stress.

In March 2023, QCOSS, Tenants Queensland and The Services Union, along with the Town of Nowhere campaign partners, commissioned the report ‘A blueprint to tackle Queensland’s housing crisis,’  which clearly articulates the contribution that inclusionary zoning would have in increasing the supply of affordable and social housing.

QCOSS supports introducing meaningful inclusionary zoning to obligate private developers to increase the supply of social and affordable housing in Queensland.
