[In His Most Exalted Name
The Great Leader of the Islamic Revolution, Hadrat Imam Khomeini- may his benign existence endure:
Considering the pressing need of the poor, deprived people for housing, and the various and numerous policies that have been adopted for solving the matter, and that have contributed to the aggravation of the crisis causing the people to swarm into Tehran in order to obtain houses, it is essential that a clear, coordinated policy be adopted by the government in order to solve the problem. Therefore, it is advisable that the Housing Foundation, an Islamic service organization, and, likewise, the Housing Transactions Bureau which carries out its work under the supervision of the Housing Foundation's board of trustees, function under the direction of the Ministry of Housing and Urban Reconstruction within the framework of policies coordinated with the Housing Ministry and act as a strong executive arm, from the financial-executive aspect, in the service of the poor and deprived people in the manner of the Reconstruction Jihad (Crusade). It is, therefore, requested that, in this connection, the necessary guidelines and instructions be issued.]
In His Most Exalted Name
Approval is hereby given.
Rouhullah al-Mousawi al-Khomeini
