Five years ago, when we launched the Flat Plus programme, we were guided by the conviction that the most important thing for most Poles, especially young people, was a job and their own home. We have managed to significantly improve conditions on the labour market and now it is our turn to support housing. - Marek Kuchciński said. - Our estimates show that Podkarpackie voivodeship needs about 80 thousand apartments. Two years ago, in Przemyśl, we started to plan the implementation of the program, and today we are putting it into effect - added the Marshal.
The Sejm has adopted changes to the law to help both those who rent an apartment and those who would like to buy one but cannot afford a loan.
