A private-public partnership is needed to fulfill Government’s ambitious goal of building 10 000 houses over the next five years.Minister of Housing, Lands and Maintenance Dwight Sutherland said this was why the Mia Mottley-led administration has been creating an enabling environment for the private sector to build more than half those houses.Speaking to the media following Wednesday’s tour of Ridge Meadows in Christ Church where B.J Investments Limited has been providing homeownership opportunities for 565 Barbados families, Sutherland stressed that Government was on a mission with its housing revolution.Noting that 1 400 houses will be built by the end of the financial year through the private-public partnerships, the Minister explained that in addition to the houses at Ridge Meadows, B.J Investments was designing another 400-unit affordable income community at Lancaster, St James.
