Thirty-three families renting state properties in Katong scheduled to move out by the year-end have been given a reprieve, with the Singapore Land Authority (SLA) granting them a six-month lease extension in view of the Covid-19 outbreak.
The households, which were initially asked to move out by December this year, will now have their leases extended to end-June next year to "help them get through this difficult period", said SLA in a statement yesterday.
