SINGAPORE – Parliament will debate two separate motions on keeping public housing affordable and accessible to Singaporeans when the House sits next week on Feb 6.
Their motion asked Parliament to call upon the Government to review its housing policies in order to deliver affordable and accessible Housing Board flats, strengthen the owner-occupation intent of public housing, protect retirement adequacy and keep public housing inclusive for Singaporeans of all generations.
Ms Sim added that the Government will make clear its commitment to keeping public housing affordable and protecting Singaporeans’ interests during the debate. In December 2022, Ms Sim had invited Mr Leong to file a parliamentary motion so that the pricing policies for Build-To-Order flats can be fully debated, following an exchange over social media on the issue.It said the total development costs for the 13,506 new flats HDB handed over to buyers came to $5.346 billion for the 2021-2022 financial year, with the bulk of it – $3.167 billion – coming from land costs.
