Minister for Housing and Community Development Premila Kumar says introducing a robust organisation structure is one of the priorities of the new Board to improve the customer service and transparency of the two institutions.

She says providing affordable housing to low and middle-income earners is one of the priorities of the Government and Housing Authority and PRB play a significant role in realising this vision.

Kumar says both institutions need significant changes in all areas to respond quickly with cost-effective housing solution to the increasing demand for affordable housing in Fiji.
