Christopher Luxon says the country needs to get faster at building things. 

The Government's announced it is replacing the Resource Management Act with a new planning framework, including new Acts around development of land and on protection of the natural environment. 

It comes after the Government also announced plans to allow trusted builders to approve their own work and look at whether consenting authorities are fit-for-purpose. 

The Prime Minister told Mike Hosking too many things are standing in the way of getting things done. 

He says it currently takes 19 months to build a standard three or four-bedroom house here and is 50% more expensive than in Australia.
