According to a report by TV6 subsidized housing will no longer be available for those making $25,000 or more per month from one household. The prior government had the ceiling at $45,000 per household. The distribution of public housing will resume this Saturday. New subsidies will also be added to make it easier to buy a home.

Dr. Rowley stated the following with regards to HDC housing:
QUOTE Rowley went on to say that the housing programme was not in the Constitution so no one had a right to receive a home from the government.
Instead he said persons had the right to access housing made available according to their needs as they are capable of contributing to the cost of the unit.
He stressed that Government did not have the ability or resources to build homes for everyone who needs one. He said even if Government provided 8,000 per year, the HDC would not be able to satisfy the needs of the 200,000 applicants with more applications coming in every day.

From the time that the PP took over this project they knew they weren't going to give it to the typical HDC applicant. Which HDC project has imported hardwood floors and marble counters? A total wastage of money!

According to CNC3, Sanda Emanuelle "Warrior Princess" was allocated a HDC apartment just before the general election that she saw, signed for and so forth. After elections she wanted to get her keys only to find out that the apartment was allocated to someone else! She made noise outside the HDC office until HDC officers attended to her. Ms. John, HDC Managind Director, promised to address it tomorrow and fix the situation if it was a mistake. Ms. Emanuelle feels it was all politically motivated.

I don't see it as an interesting move. It seems to me they were probably removed temporally (Later on to be removed permanently) in order to put key people in those positions. As always, politics.
