Islamabad: The National Assembly’s Standing Committee on Housing and Works on Monday (February 13) summoned Federal Government Employees Housing Authority (FGEHA) Director General Muhammad Junaid Anwar to discuss allotment concerns for plots, flats, and apartments, news sources reported.
The committee asked the FGEHA Chief Anwar about the ongoing development work and the reasons for the delay in the allotment of the flats to the federal government employees. Briefing the members of the committee, Anwar said the current projects are progressing at a rapid pace with steps taken to address any ongoing issues. The committee was also briefed on the waiting list and category-wise allotments for houses in Sectors G-9 and G-10 of Islamabad. The officials clarified that the Capital Development Authority (CDA) maintains its own pool of housing for its employees which makes the CDA personnel not eligible to receive accommodations from the Estate Office pool in FGEHA projects. Later, the committee also worked on the mechanism of the Pakistan Housing Authority Foundation (PHAF) and National Construction Limited (NCL).
It is important to note that FGEHA, being a federal government authority, is responsible for the provision of affordable housing solutions for the employees of the central government. The authority has several projects in four provinces and Islamabad. Recently, the authority announced a project for the development of eight housing and commercial projects in different cities.
