The ministry of housing and lands, and maintenance intends to partner with BJ investments to provide more affordable housing options for middle and low income earners.

Government officials, and staff from the National Housing Cooperation, toured the ridge meadows housing project in Christ church to view some of the work being undertaken there to build over 565 new homes.

Minister of housing lands and maintenance, Dwight Sutherland, stressed the importance of partnering with private sector builders to meet its goal of building ten thousand houses.

He believes that this partnership is the way forward, in which he said that NHC will be proving these entities with land.
