CH&PA raises minimum age requirement for house lot applicants to 21

The Central Housing and Planning Authority (CH&PA) has raised the minimum age of eligibility for house lot applicants to 21. 

The age of eligibility for applicants was lowered to 18 under the former APNU+AFC administration, although allocations were not made until applicants turned 21. 

In an interview with the Department of Public Information (DPI), Housing Minister Collin Croal said lowering the age was not practical for those seeking bank loans.
