Al-Awadi: Housing issue is a mainstay of the PM interests

INA - BAGHDAD 

The government spokesman, Basim Al-Awadi, stressed on Saturday, that the housing issue is a fundamental mainstay for the interest of the prime minister.

"PM Muhammed S. Al-Sudani has put the housing file as one of the mainstays of his interests. In this file, there is a set of sequential priorities that need unilateral solutions, and then move on to other titles, respectively," said Al-Awadi to the Iraqi News Agency - INA.

He highlighted, "Based on this pivotal focus on priorities in the housing crisis, the government has set its sights on resolving the crisis of the gender and ownership of agricultural lands, given that this issue has implications beyond mere housing. It represents the basis for the housing crisis and a disturbing concern that strikes at the core of the Iraqi middle class. This also represents the pillar of the growth and stability of the country.

"It is necessary to resolve the issue of the gender of agricultural lands with residential, political, developmental and security dimensions, as a pioneering first step, and then other basic steps will follow on the road to resolving the national housing crisis," he included.
