Chairperson, we thank the hon member for asking the question. Our reply is as follows. The priority of accelerating the delivery of housing opportunities requires that a comprehensive set of programmes with required targets and outputs must be achieved by the state in conjunction with society, including business and communities.
The set of programmes includes the provision of infrastructure and basic services to all households, as well as improving access to land and finance by the state, society and individual households to ensure that the socioeconomic goals set by government and the state are achieved.
The provision of free basic housing is but one programme funded and implemented by the government as Human Settlements' function, so we have no illusion or thought that we will stop this programme as yet, because there is still a need out there. Thank you.
