Three people running for the Brazilian presidency are to partake in a televised debate tonight, at least two of which are planning to extend the Minha Casa, Minha Vida (My House, My Life) project.
Dilma Rousseff - who is being backed by current leader Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva - and Marina Silva were both recently reported to be in favour of continuing the programme, which provides affordable housing for low-income households.
They will be debating with the third presidential candidate, Jose Serra - representing the Social Democrat party, according to the Irish Times.
In a recent public opinion poll, Ms Rousseff was shown to be in the lead on 39 per cent, followed by Mr Serra with 34 per cent, while Ms Silva was being backed by seven per cent of respondents.
According to a recent report by Dow Jones Newswires, the latter - a green party candidate - intends to continue the macroeconomic policies that have been successful during Lula's rule, including the Minha Casa, Minha Vida affordable housing scheme.
Similarly, Reuters said that Ms Rousseff has pledged to keep running the programme and ensure the social and economic gains achieved under the current president are continued.
