The passage of the Urban Development and Housing Act of 1992 (UDHA) and the Local Government Code of 1991 (LGC) led to the devolution of the primary responsibility for land use and planning and the provision of low-cost housing to local government units. The LGS is expected to strengthen the socialized housing development provision of UDHA. The study provided an assessment of the technical and administrative capacities of local officials to implement the socialized housing provision of the UDHA. Specifically, it evaluated the performance of local government units given the socialized housing development provision of the UDHA. It recommended policy interventions that may be considered by appropriate government agencies to enhance the capability and capacity of local governments in realizing the goal of socialized housing.
