The Board of Directors of the Sheikh Zayed Housing Programme, under the chairmanship of Dr. Abdullah bin Mohammed Belhaif Al Nuaimi, Minister of Public Works and Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Programme, has approved the names of 325 citizens eligible for housing assistance for May, 2013, distributed all over the emirates, and with a total value of Dh162 million.

The approval came upon the directives of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai.

The aid was distributed between 274 residential housing grants and 51 “decision to build" houses, which will be implemented through the signing of annual contracts within the category of " Establishing a House", where the programme will sponsor, with the concerned authorities, allocation of land and the supervision of all phases of construction, in order to facilitate housing for this segment and accelerate the process of delivering to beneficiaries in order to keep pace with the progress being witnessed by the UAE.

The aim of the programme is to achieve housing stability for citizens' families and provide a decent life for them.
