The builders qualify to the Government: there are 3,000 homes in progress of the Plan 5,000, not 31,000

Catalan construction companies have stated that the Generalitat has only put out to tender 3,000 apartments from the famous 50,000 Plan, thus clarifying statements made by the President of the Government, Salvador Illa, who said there were 31,041 "underway" during an intervention in Parliament in October. Furthermore, they have warned that "none have been completed." The Catalan executive committed to incorporating 50,000 affordable rental apartments into the market, to be built by 2030.

"What the president says is underway is because he has it in mind, but urban development plans still need to be changed. He considers them done," warned the president of the Chamber of Contractors of Public Works of Catalonia (CCOC), Lluís Moreno, who did admit that Illa, most likely, has them located. He detailed that four lots have been put out to tender, 2,000 by the Generalitat and the remaining thousand by the city councils, and that they are "distributed throughout all regions."

In 2025, a total of 16,562 homes were completed in Catalonia, 25% more than the previous year, but 15,589 were started, 0.01% less than in 2024. The production of public housing only represents 2% of the total.
