Debated in Parliament on 4 Feb 2013.
Mr Png Eng Huat asked the Minister for National Development as a percentage of the land area of Singapore, what is the total area used for public housing and the total area used for private housing.
Mdm Speaker, about 7% of Singapore's total land area is allocated to public housing. Private housing occupies another 7%, largely in areas zoned for low-rise and low-density land use.
Is the 7% based on 2010 data that were released recently?
Yes.
