Announced in December 2005, the New Growth Points initiative is designed to provide funding and support to local communities who wish to pursue large scale and sustainable growth, including new housing, through a partnership with Government.
The Government invited local authorities to submit strategic growth proposals which were sustainable, acceptable environmentally and realistic in terms of infrastructure to be assessed by Government and its agencies.
