Minister Keijzer omarmt advies STOER en past Besluit bouwwerken leefomgeving aan

Minister Mona Keijzer accepts most recommendations from the STOER advisory report related to her responsibilities, intending to facilitate faster and more affordable housing construction. Changes include adjusting technical building requirements, encouraging local authorities to streamline regulations, and refraining from tightening environmental performance standards for buildings. The Minister plans to swiftly implement adjustments to the Building Decree for the environment and construction sector, focusing on reducing unnecessary cost increases while maintaining housing quality. Additionally, recommendations concerning balcony accessibility requirements, local building regulations, and expediting planning procedures are addressed. The Minister will promptly act on these proposals in collaboration with other government departments to enhance housing production initiatives. Future steps involve finalizing adjustments to the Building Decree by next year to positively impact the targeted annual housing construction of at least 100,000 homes.
