7. The new regulation further outlines the need to develop future mechanisms for the open sale of construction materials at real cost. Complementing the new policy is Resolution 392 of December 2009 issued by the Cuban Ministry of Finances and Prices. In a clear example of the integration of the hard currency and peso economy operating in Cuba, the resolution seeks to progressively lower the prices of construction materials for sale in hard currency markets and authorise the free sale of other construction goods in local currency (Cuban pesos). By enabling greater purchasing power, these new measures encourage people to expand urban infrastructure with their own efforts. The new legislation also allows for developing land-lease property into homes owned by ordinary Cubans who would otherwise not be able to own their own houses.
