Would the Department be able to supply the committee with a memo in respect of those 12 sites and the associated targets? That would be very helpful. I appreciate that most of these sites are being repaid on an interest-only basis. The capital is never repaid. It represents great indebtedness for the local authorities. Clearly, we have to address the issue of bringing forward housing on those lands. It would be very helpful to understand those 12 locations with regard to the stage we have reached with each, the delivery methods being used and the numbers of new homes that are going to be created. It would be helpful if the Department could send us on a memo rather than teasing it out any further now.
