Land and Housing Supply

Land Supply

183. The 2024‑25 Land Sale Programme will cover a total of eight residential sites.  There will also be railway property developments, private development and redevelopment projects as well as projects undertaken by the Urban Renewal Authority.  Taken together, the potential land supply for the whole year is expected to have a capacity for providing about 15 000 units, exceeding the annual demand of 13 200 units projected in the Long Term Housing Strategy by about 14 per cent.  The Land Sale Programme will also include two commercial sites and one industrial site, capable of providing about 120 000 square metres of commercial floor area and 540 000 square metres of industrial floor area respectively.  We will take into account the market situation when deciding on the quantity and types of land to be put up for sale as well as the pace of sale.

184. We will make available land for the production of no less than 80 000 private housing units in the coming five years.  Such land will be put to the market in a timely manner.  Among them, about 60 per cent comes from New Development Areas/New Town Extensions, with another 40 per cent from government land sale and railway property development projects in other districts.
