Everyone needs their own home. The housing shortage has put too many people’s lives on hold. We need a fundamental breakthrough – more homes faster, smarter use of existing buildings and fewer obstacles. I’ll also be working on effective spatial planning. All this will make our country ready for the future, with better prospects for everyone seeking a home.
