Sheikh Zayed Housing Programme (SZHP), an initiative under the Ministry of Energy and Infrastructure (MoEI), has paid out housing support worth AED 749 million to 945 cases so far this year.
This includes the provision of either government houses or home finance jointly with banks and represents 32 per cent of the total cases the programme aims to help in 2023.
Eng Mohamed Al Mansouri, Director of SZHP, said it's part of efforts of the UAE government "to improve the social wellbeing and living conditions of UAE people" and "in line with the government objectives for the next 50 years".
"To contribute to the happiness of UAE citizens, SZHP has devised plans and launched initiatives and projects to...meet the needs of Emiratis who applied for housing aid," he added.
"For the next phase, we seek to align efforts among the government, the private sector, and the local community to better serve...beneficiaries."
