Résumé
For the local authorities indicated in article 73 of the Constitution, development, town planning and housing law has been enhanced, especially thanks to common law. Indeed, very few measures in this area which only concern these local authorities have come from specific texts or from texts that also apply in Metropolitan France. Not particularly abundant in 2018 for the local authorities in article 74, legal news concerning development, town planning and housing was nonetheless quite dense for New Caledonia, where a decree and a legal opinion drew particular attention, while provincial regulations relative to town planning documents and permits grew substantially.
