According to the documentation, there have been over 100 expressions of interest in providing modular developments. What is the exact figure? Over 100 could mean 1,000. Is the figure 110, 140 or 150? How many are there? As this is a sensitive matter, I have asked for information on the number of people coming in under both categories, broken down by local electoral area. That information will be taken into account when the Department decides where to work with people to build modular homes. Have local authorities been informed of the possible locations of the more than 100 modular spaces? I presume the answer is "Yes".
