The land ministry announced a plan to supply over 230,000 additional homes in the Seoul metropolitan area.
SEOUL, Aug. 13 (Yonhap) -- The government will newly establish a meeting of related ministries to be presided over by the prime minister to make sure that its latest housing supply plan will proceed smoothly, Government Policy Coordination Minister Lim Ki-keun said.
The land ministry announced earlier that it will push to supply more than 230,000 additional homes in the Seoul metropolitan area by accelerating development on public land, lifting greenbelt restrictions in some areas and supporting private-sector projects.
"Implementation is the key," Lim said. "We will newly establish a swift housing supply oversight meeting so that the prime minister will personally oversee the supply schedule and make sure that discussions between ministries go smoothly on important issues."
A working-level meeting will also be set up for officials from related ministries to review important issues in advance from the beginning, while a support team will go into operation to provide necessary permits and approvals for the massive project, Lim said.
