Dar es Salaam. Parliament yesterday passed the National Housing Corporation (Amendment) Bill, 2025, setting the stage for wide-ranging changes aimed at strengthening governance, financial sustainability, and operational efficiency at the state-run real estate agency.
The new law introduces several amendments to the National Housing Corporation (NHC) Act (Cap 295), with key provisions giving the President powers to appoint the director general, increasing penalties for misconduct, and expanding the agency’s sources of income.
