MORE RURAL PUBLIC HOUSING TO BE BUILT

****

THE GOVERNMENT WILL INVITE THE HONG KONG HOUSING SOCIETY TO CONTINUE BUILDING RURAL PUBLIC HOUSING ESTATES.

DISCLOSING THIS TODAY, A GOVERNMENT SPOKESMAN SAID THE SOCIETY WOULD BE ASKED TO STUDY THE FEASIBILITY OF BUILDING A RURAL PUBLIC HOUSING ESTATE AT SHA TAU KOK, SIMILAR TO THE ONE BEING BUILT BY THE SOCIETY AT TUI MIN HOI, SAI KUNG.

+ THE PROPOSED PROJECT IS PART OF THE GOVERNMENT'S CONTINUING EFFORTS TO IMPROVE THE LIVING CONDITION AND ENVIRONMENT OF SELECTED RURAL LOCATIONS, HE SAID.

THE SPOKESMAN EXPLAINED THAT THE DECISION TO SEEK THE SOCIETY'S CONTINUED INVOLVEMENT IN RURAL PUBLIC HOUSING DEVELOPMENTS FOLLOWED A REVIEW OF THE TUI MIN HOI PROJECT.

THIS PROJECT COMPRISES 300 UNITS IN BLOCKS OF FOUR AND FIVE STOREYS DESIGNED TO HOUSE 1 800 PEOPLE.

ON COMPLETION NEXT YEAR, THEY WILL BE RENTED TO LOCAL APPLICANTS WHO SATISFY THE HOUSING AUTHORITY'S ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA.
