An example of policy failure

No sooner had government started implementing the revised Self Help Housing Agency (SHHA) project than they also started to implement a turn-key program for the needy.

As is the case with several new programmes before it could be pilot tested the turn-key housing scheme was implemented on a large scale among some of the largest districts with the highest population of the needy. As if that was not enough, the respective councils awarded the "tender" to Habitat to build the 200 houses in 12 months - as if the NGO is a profit making private construction company.
