Policy Objectives

• continue our efforts in increasing housing supply based on the Long Term Housing Strategy, with a view to addressing the problem of housing supply-demand imbalance;
• provide more public rental housing units and ensure the rational use of existing resources;
• provide more subsidised sale flats, expand the forms of subsidised home ownership and facilitate market circulation of existing stock; and
• maintain the healthy development of the private residential property market, accord priority to home ownership needs of Hong Kong permanent residents amidst the prevailing tight housing supply situation, and promote good sales and tenancy practices for private residential properties at the same time.
