A major report has been released which makes key recommendations to boost the number of women working in construction across NSW. 

A Building Work Rectification Order issued by the Building Commission NSW to a Macquarie Park apartment block poses no danger to the residents of that building.

NSW property agents and managers are being warned to only consider trusted, quality focussed and registered training organisations (RTOs) for professional development and licensing requirements or risk their qualifications being challenged.

The NSW Government has introduced 31 reforms to make it easier for people and their pets to live in a strata community or a community land scheme.
