Germany unveils relief measures to prop up construction industry

BERLIN, Sept 25 - German Chancellor Olaf Scholz's government said it was shelving proposed building regulations on Monday as part of a 45 billion euro relief package to prop up a construction industry stricken by high interest rates and rising costs.

Abolition of the insulation standards has been a top demand of industry, which says the measures are too expensive. The chancellor said the government is exploring the option of serial construction to speed up the process, a production method used in other sectors, like the automotive industry.
