This paper aims to explore the Hong Kong Government's current public housing policies, and its future plans for accommodating the needs of the elderly and disabled living in public housing. I will also touch on the subject of urban planning in relation to catering for the elderly and disabled. In conclusion, there is a high proportion of elderly people requiring public housing in Hong Kong. High-rise blocks are in particular inadequate relating to barrier-free. That said, it is evident there has been rapid progress in integrating “Barrier-free” requirements into the design of new public housing.
