MEPs set out their recommendations to promote decent, sustainable, and affordable housing across the European Union in a debate with Council and Commission representatives. They highlight the precarious living conditions of millions of Europeans, due to a limited housing supply and increasing rent and mortgage costs in the past two decades. The draft proposals cover the key aspects of the crisis, including the need to boost investment through EU, national and private funds, to reduce red tape in the housing sector, improve the quality, sustainability and habitability of homes, and to tackle labour shortages and competitiveness challenges in the construction sector.

Commissioner Jørgensen and MEPs discuss how to ensure access to affordable housing across the EU. The Commission’s Affordable Housing Plan is expected to include a dedicated construction strategy and streamlined administrative procedures to accelerate the renovation of existing households. MEPs focus on the shortage of skilled workers in the construction sector, a possible revision of state aid rules to incentivise construction, and cooperation with the private sector. The importance of renovation and rehabilitation in both urban and rural areas is also likely to be raised during the debate. First part of MEPs debate.
