Theme 4: Participation and Partnerships There is overall support for partnerships and the participation of communities A request was made for an Office on Women BIFSA offered expertise and the ability to deliver at scale Sustainable housing delivery are not exclusively the domain of housing

Theme 5: Quality Housing Delivery Systems Government’s shift to quality housing was emphasised Quality should also include quality environments For low-income housing, there is always the tension between profit and quality, making monitoring of compliance essential.

Theme 6: Housing Finance The Banking Sector indicated a new commitment to low-income housing finance through the Financial Services Charter (FSC) The Government was urged to also look at other models that help the poor, The capacity of poor households to mobilise savings for building their own houses was also illustrated Government is conscious that the initial commitment by the financial sector through the Botshabelo Accord has not been fully implemented and it welcomed the FSC.

Theme 7: Capacity Building for effective Delivery The importance of capacity building in the provision of housing and infrastructure was stressed The most important point that emerged is the need for partnerships in capacity building.

4. Recommendations from the Summit A need for a differentiated and flexible informal settlement upgrading/development policy; An enabling policy environment and a new vision for social housing; A redefinition of the notion of sustainability and the introduction of protocols for synchronising the activities and investments of government departments; The use of planning instruments and partnerships to make land markets work better for the poor;

4. Recommendations from the Summit continue Legislation on property and inheritance rights for children in a context of HIV/AIDS and provision for child-headed households in existing housing policy instruments; A policy framework to more specifically address the housing needs of the disabled, including a revision of targeted allocation of projects to the disabled by 2007; The establishment of an Office on Women in the Department and formal, quarterly meeting to ensure ongoing dialogue;

4. Recommendations from the Summit continue Partnerships with BIFSA based on the strengths and contributions of the different parties; Representation of the Department of Housing on the Public Works Steering Committee; Simplify PHP documentation and develop a housing partnership approach through the PHP;

4. Recommendations from the Summit continue Increased consultation with organisations of poor people, especially around policy change; Speed up the issuing of title deeds registration Unblock the release of some R47m in housing subsidies to the South African Homeless People’s Federation
