ABSA to provide 100,000 low cost homes by 2010 - South Africa - The Good News : "Steve Booysen" Monday, 02 April 2007 ABSA has committed R2.6 billion to provide 100,000 low cost homes in South Africa by 2010. Speaking at the handing over of more than 200 government subsidised houses, ABSA Chief Executive Officer Steve Booysen said the R2.6 billion was the bank's contribution towards sustainable human settlements for the nation.

The DA has received a disturbing increase in complaints from affected communities and individuals, yet attempts by the DA to debate these problems at committee level have been blocked by the ANC. It is regrettable that the NMMM has, over the past five years, done little to meet the housing expectations of its citizens, and the municipal waiting list for people requiring housing is in a shambles. Housing, when available, appears to be allocated in an ad hoc manner, and the sophisticated computerised housing waiting list of the former Port Elizabeth Municipality appears to have been “lost”. This list consisted of some 25 000 families of all races. Some of
