Therefore regulating housing is quite possible to only make things less safe, as people end up giving up money for healthy food / education / healthcare / dentistry etc to fund the trumped up "enviromental study" "planning and zoning" "code" and other requirements that might not best fit their budget.

The interim regulation is addressing risks of the outcomes of poor policy, rather than addressing the poor policy in the first place.
