According to the Housing Production and Supply Leap Plan, all offices, devices and factories can set up housing cooperatives for their employees and then start building with free land and suitable facilities.

According to the International Iranian Stone Exhibition, the plan to jump in production and housing supply with the aim of constructing one million housing units per year has been approved by the Islamic Consultative Assembly and is currently in the Guardian Council. In this year's budget bill, the parliament has considered the amount of 360 thousand billion tomans of facilities for this project, and according to the deputies, the banks are obliged to pay this amount of credit.

On the other hand, in order to provide free land, the lands under the control of the devices will be given to the Ministry of Roads and Urban Development with the aim of building a residential unit. The ministry has also been allowed to incorporate land outside the city limits and build support housing if needed.

"About 500,000 to 600,000 housing units will be built next year for the low-income and vulnerable groups, including workers," said Sadif Badri, a member of the parliament's civil commission. The final price of construction materials for the construction of these units should be determined as soon as possible so as not to create a black market in this regard.

According to Badri, all departments, agencies and factories can set up housing cooperatives for their workers and then start building housing by receiving free land and suitable facilities.

The plan to boost housing production has been approved by parliament while the government also has plans to control the housing market at the same time; One of the measures is the tax on vacant houses. Another step is to complete the Mehr housing faster, which is almost finished. The third will be the provision of facilities to semi-finished units, which has been announced several times that everyone has a semi-finished unit that could not be completed due to lack of liquidity.

Mahmoud Mahmoudzadeh, Deputy Minister of Roads and Urban Development, said in this regard: "This year, the parliament has determined a good credit for housing facilities in the budget law, which will be a prosperous year in the field of housing production with the banking system." The Housing Production Leap Law, which has been approved by the parliament and is now in the Negbahan Council, also creates the necessary railways so that housing production can be increased and built as needed annually.

Deputy Minister of Housing and Construction, Minister of Roads and Urban Development, added: "In general, we follow short-term, medium-term and long-term measures in the ministry." In short, the tax is on vacant homes. The medium-term national action plan and the long-term plan for housing production and supply over the next five years. In this regard, all provinces have been told to provide suitable land for construction for the next five years so that governments will not have to start from scratch in the future.
