The Sheikh Zayed Housing Programme (SZHP) which is an initiative under the Ministry of Energy and Infrastructure (MoEI), issued 432 decisions for housing aid valued at Dh298.7 million. This includes applications for house construction, completion, purchase, maintenance, and upgrade.

The move is part of the Initiatives of the UAE President and in line with the order of UAE President His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan to complete all housing grant applications submitted to the Programme, at a total cost of around Dh2.3 billion.

Minister of Energy and Infrastructure, Suhail bin Mohammed Al Mazrouei, said that SZHP continues its endeavours to enhance family stability, ensure a decent living, and improve the quality of life of UAE citizens, even during Ramadan. He said that the UAE's wise leadership is deeply invested in the government housing sector as it helps build a cohesive society that can contribute to the progress of the nation.

Eng Mohamed Al Mansouri, Director of SZHP, said that they have set ambitious plans to meet the growing housing needs of UAE citizens. They work closely with their partners from the federal and local government, the private sector, and the banking sector to achieve these plans. The Programme follows in the steps of the founding father, late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, by contributing to the social wellbeing and prosperity of the people.
