Finance Minister Colm Imbert announced this on Monday duringthe 2022-3 budget presentation in Parliament.

He said there are currently 191,000 applicants, adding that the HDC has \"built-in inefficiencies and it cannot continue with business as usual.\"
He said the government will provide \"significant financial resources\" to the HDC via three government-guaranteed loans.
He said $500 million will be used to complete stalled or existing projects, another $500 million to pay debts owed to contractors and suppliers, and $500 million for constructing new housing units.
