Cyprus Presidency Prioritizes Affordable Housing in EU

Housing is a major issue and a priority for the Cypriot Presidency, aiming to enhance access to quality, sustainable, and affordable housing for all European citizens. The Minister of Interior, Konstantinos Ioannou, informed the European Parliament's special committee on the housing crisis (HOUS) about the Presidency's priorities. The Cypriot Presidency will focus on improving access to affordable housing, especially for young people and vulnerable groups, facilitating investment in the housing sector, increasing supply, and exchanging experiences and knowledge. As part of this, an informal video conference will be held with the Housing Commissioner and a ministerial meeting in Nicosia in May.
