In recent weeks, the Damascus governorate has resumed paying late rent allowances for 2020 and part of 2019 to residents entitled to alternative housing in the Marota City construction project, following a long interruption in payments. The governorate blamed the delayed payments on the Covid-19 pandemic, despite the fact that the latest delay was not the first of its kind in recent years.
The Damascus governorate’s director for implementing Legislative Decree No. 66 revealed that the governorate had paid a total of more than SYP 13 billion to 5,516 people eligible for alternative housing in the Marota City and Basilia projects, as a rental allowance for 2015 to the present. The director added that the total annual payments were more than SYP 2 billion, distributed via checks to the stakeholders. He affirmed that the governorate would continue making the rental allowance payments on time until the alternative housing units were handed over.
