In this week’s Friday Fight, a debate series in which two writers make their case on a hotly contested topic, the question is: does the planning system do more harm than good? As rents rise, property prices soar and the housing crisis reaches a boiling point, the focus has turned to supply as governments mull over reforms to the planning system. In the negative corner, we have economist Cameron Murray. Arguing in the affirmative is lead organiser of YIMBY Melbourne Jonathan O’Brien.

Guy Rundle actually has a lot in common with YIMBYs, despite his recent article. For starters, he wants to make it easier to build dense public housing near existing infrastructure. He wants the Maribyrnong defence site redeveloped in a way that mirrors a proposal we made as part of the Abundant Housing Network Australia established in February. He even wants new tall buildings to be built alongside their low-rise heritage counterparts — something current heritage controls will rarely permit.

AI artificial intelligence ICG indocyanine green Introduction Initially developed during World War II for colour imaging, indocyanine green (ICG) is an injectable, highly water soluble dye with fluorescent properties when examined under near-infrared light [1]. With low rates of complication, ICG was re-purposed for medical use in the 1960s [1]. ICG binds with β-lipoproteins, particularly albumin abundantly found in the lymphatic system.

CA chylous ascites RPLND retroperitoneal lymph node dissection Introduction Retroperitoneal lymph node dissection (RPLND) is an important part of multimodal therapy for node-positive germ cell malignancy [1-4]. However, due to wide heterogeneity in patient status, disease biology and tumour locations, RPLND can be challenging and risky [1]. One such risk is iatrogenic chylous ascites (CA; 8% of cases) [1].

OPINIONLate last year, almost 150,000 Victorian households were either homeless or experiencing rental stress. Meanwhile, Victoria’s social housing stock has grown by a meagre 74 dwellings over four years. Housing experts describe our nationwide shortage of social and affordable housing as a ticking “time bomb”, one that’s costing Australia upwards of $650m a year. In 2023, there is nothing particularly new about the housing crisis.

YIMBYs are reformists, not fundamentalists. The policy changes we call for will enable more public and private housing alike. In only his second-most controversial column of the week, Guy Rundle wrote on June 13 (“To build better cities, we need to build better YIMBYs“) that the YIMBY movement is “utterly misdirected”. The article, however, betrays fundamental misunderstandings of both YIMBYism and the contemporary housing crisis.
