It is my understanding that the government is not putting a policy in place since it is trying to get out of staff housing and is planning to turn this responsibility over to either the individuals or groups that may be interested in purchasing staff housing. However, the problem lies in the benefit of long-term leases for at least 10 years. If this policy is put in place, it will be impossible for any financing of the staff housing turnover if they are not long-term leases. Would the Minister give his commitment to revisit this policy and ensure that some consideration is given to long-term leasing so that we can finance these things?
