All eight Confirmed List sites are private residential sites [including one Executive Condominium (EC) site], which can collectively yield about 5,160 private residential units (including 560 EC units) and 4,900 sqm GFA of commercial space. The Reserve List comprises six private residential sites (including two EC sites), one commercial site, one White site and one hotel site. These Reserve List sites can yield an additional 3,430 private residential units (including 855 EC units), 93,350 sqm GFA of commercial space and 530 hotel rooms.
The Government will continue to monitor economic and property market conditions closely and calibrate the supply of future GLS Programmes, as necessary, to help meet demand and promote market stability.
Supply of private housing
To cater to strong private housing demand, the Government has decided to increase the supply of private housing on the Confirmed List further to 5,160 units, from 4,090 units in the 1H2023 GLS Programme. This brings the total Confirmed List supply to 9,250 units in 2023, the highest level since 2013. This is also nearly 50% higher than the supply in 2022, and around 2.5 times the supply in 2021. The Government has also made available sites on the Reserve List that can yield an additional 3,430 units, for developers to initiate for development if they assess that there is demand.
The increased Confirmed List supply for 2H2023 will add to the existing pipeline supply to meet the housing needs of the population. Specifically, it will bring the total pipeline supply of private housing (including ECs) to about 63,500 units, comprising 50,200 units with planning approval and 13,300 units from GLS sites and awarded en-bloc sites that have yet to be granted planning approval. Of these, about 40,400 units will be completed between 2023 and 2025, which is more than double the 20,000 units completed from 2020 to 2022. This forms part of the total supply of about 100,000 public and private housing units to be completed between 2023 and 2025, which will help to cater to housing needs in the immediate few years ahead.
Supply of office space
The White site for a mixed-use development at Woodlands Avenue 2 and the short-term lease commercial site at Punggol Walk will be carried over from the 1H2023 Reserve List to the 2H2023 Reserve List. These two sites will provide opportunity for developers to initiate the development of more office and retail space if they assess that there is demand.
Supply of hotel rooms
The 2H2023 Reserve List includes a site at River Valley Road carried over from the 1H2023 Reserve List. This will provide opportunity for developers to initiate the development of more hotel rooms if there is demand.
