Housing and Settlement

The government is committed to ensuring the basic social and economic rights of the citizens are achieved through accessible and adequate housing, to reasonable standards of sanitation. The government will:

• Increase the supply of new housing to 250,000 per annum and the percentage of affordable housing supply from 2 percent to 50 percent. The government will achieve this by structuring affordable long-term housing finance schemes, including a National Housing Fund and Cooperative Social Housing Schemes, that will guarantee off take of houses from developers;

• Strengthen Jua Kali industry capacity to pro­duce high quality construction productions;

• Give developers incentives to build more affordable housing.
