Deputy Minister of Human Settlements Zou Kota-Fredericks on Friday hosted the Human Settlements People’s Housing Process Imbizo in Mfuleni.

The department is currently targeting to deliver 1.5 million housing opportunities by 2019.

Deputy Minister Fredericks said it is important for South Africans to join this process to help government build houses.

Deputy Minister Fredericks said what is important about the people’s housing process is the ability of beneficiaries to be at the centre of housing delivery and within that process they also get skills.

“What we have noted in many instances is that houses that are built through the People Housing Process are much bigger than what government provides.” Fredericks added. 

She concluded by saying that with the People’s Housing Process they build houses which are more than 50 square meters because with the service that they do they are able to add on what the government gives them.
