It was earlier reported that those lots were allocated at La Bonne Intention (LBI), Mon Repos, La Reconnaissance, Annandale, Vigilance, Strathspey and Bladen Hall.
Meanwhile, in all the coastland regions, the minister also highlighted, a total of 11,700 lots have been allocated.
Complementing the distribution of the house lots, there have been investments in infrastructure works leading to the correlation or rehabilitation of roads, bridges, drains and other utilities.
On Saturday, during an outreach at Chateau Margot ECD, Croal said that the ministry will be seeking more funds to develop schemes under its purview. Additionally, the ministry is in the process of acquiring lands for new housing developments from the Guyana Lands and Surveys Commission (GLSC) and the Guyana Sugar Incorporated (GuySuCo).
This is expected to bring major relief to applicants in the ministry’s existing backlog.
