Two registers, side by side
What is proposed here versus what is approved. These are separate government registers that nobody publishes together: the NSW Planning Portal records what people apply to build, the ABS records what is actually approved. Over the last 12 months the ABS recorded 6 dwellings approved in Gwydir Shire Council worth $3.56M. The application pipeline is running at about 3.56× that rate. Substantially more is being proposed than approved.
