Abstract

The supply situation of public rental housing by Hong Kong Housing Authority is clarified in order to grasp the present condition of housing supply in Hong Kong. About the supply situation of public rental housing in Hong Kong, the public permanent housing and the private permanent housing are 50 percent respectively, and the public rental housing forms 30 percent of the whole residence. About the supply situation of public rental housing by Hong Kong Housing Authority, reexamination of the new development of public rental housing and supply stoppage of subsidized home ownership housing are performed by conversion of the housing policy in 2006. As of 2012, the redevelopment project and the large-scale repair project of public rental housing which have been superannuated are advanced preponderantly.
