  • refinement of the vision and outcomes;
  • clarifying Government’s actions to provide more public rental housing and address lack of housing supply;
  • further refinement of the Building System reform;
  • addressing materials and skills shortages;
  • clarifying how NPS-UD interrelates with GPS-HUD;
  • greater Government’s contribution;
  • better coordination between local and central government;
  • better alignment between different work programmes;
  • development of the Population Strategy;
  • better use of exiting funding and financing tools;
