The Government Low-cost Housing Programme was
introduced.
The government published a white paper on "Review of
Policies for Squatter Control, Resettlement and Government Low-cost
Housing".
The Temporary Housing Scheme was launched.
The resettlement blocks became high-rise buildings.
Facilities gradually ameliorated. In Mark IV, V and VI buildings,
a balcony and toilet were provided inside each flat.
The population in public housing estates reached one million.
