I will ask an obvious question. Why are we not engaging in rent-to-buy programmes involving vacant housing in suitable areas across the country where NAMA has properties? I wonder why that issue has not been examined. Perhaps Mr. O'Leary can clear something else up for me. What is the current position with the incremental purchase scheme? Is the agency providing funding to local authorities for the scheme? I will proceed to ask about some other matters when I get an answer to those questions. Is the agency funding the incremental purchase scheme at this time?
