TIRANA, Oct 3 /ATA/ – Prime Minister Edi Rama stated at a meeting with entrepreneurs on Tuesday that construction companies should give 3% of the total housing area of to the Social Housing Fund in the city or area where they are developing their construction projects.
Responding to the Albanian Association of Constructors about what they call “a high housing tax rate”, the government head said that the 3% rate is not a high one.
Rama said that nobody is forced to develop construction projects.
“You build because it is in your interest to do so and you gain earnings from construction projects. I don’t want you to pretend as of being social category in need. We are talking about ways to simplify procedures, whereas you send letters asking the state not to collect what the state is entitled to collect.
PM Rama said that builders should pay the 3% social housing tax in the city or the area where they are developing these construction projects.
