The Portuguese government has announced that it will deliver 28,000 public housing units by the end of August. This commitment was disclosed in a statement by the Ministries of Economy and Territorial Cohesion and Infrastructure and Housing.

In addition to the 28,000 units, the government stated that another 12,000 housing units are currently in advanced construction. This information is part of a broader plan to achieve a total of 40,000 units by December 2026.
