HOUSING LOTTERY

Carol Matroo of the Guardian, do you realise you have conflicting statements in consecutive sentences on your story on the housing lottery? (http://guardian.co.tt/news5.html)
"...if the Housing Ministry and the Housing Development Corporation have their way in implementing the lottery system to distribute houses.

Since 2001, when the HDC was known as the National Housing Authority, the ministry had implemented a “housing lottery” or a random computer draw, whereby expectant home owners would acquire a house."

There is no indication from the HDC or the Housing Minister that the housing lottery was abandoned since it was implemented seven years ago.
