Submission to the Environment Committee on Urban Redevelopment Bill

Executive Summary

The Salvation Army generally supports this Bill. However, there are some specific and crucial aspects of the Bill that we want to comment on or seek further clarification about. This includes our views on the proposed specified development projects (SDPs) process and the stated safeguards in this Bill. These comments form the core part of our submission. But we support this Bill because we need more adequate and affordable housing for our nation, particularly for lower income families.
