20 feb 1950 año - National Govt Housing Policy

Descripción:

1950 policy statement made an explicit drawing of the linkages between home-ownership and citizenship:

The Government has great faith in the social value of home-ownership. An important part of its policy is to encourage people to own their own homes, for it considers that home building and home-ownership develop initiative, self-reliance, thrift, and other good qualities which go to make up the moral strength of the nation ... Above all, home-ownership promotes responsible citizenship. To the community it gives stability, and to the homeowner it gives a constant sense of security, pride and well-being. At all times the emphasis of Government policy will be on private building and families will be encouraged to build for themselves the type of dwellings best suited to their needs
