Jerusalem, 7 December 1999
Halt to Housing Tenders during Framework Negotiations
(Communicated by the Prime Minister's Media Adviser)
Prime Minister Ehud Barak today announced his intention to
refrain from issuing additional housing tenders (in the
territories) during the period of negotiations on the
Israel-Palestinian framework agreement, beyond the tenders
already published for the construction of 1,800 housing units.
This decision is in accordance with the government guidelines and
serves Israel's objective of strengthening Israel's negotiating
position in order to protect its vital interests.
