It will not be Kildare. For what it is worth, the Department would not be able to afford it because rent assistance is way out of sync with even what is being paid on the rental accommodation scheme. However, I would like to see Kildare or a similar area being used as the pilot because that would provide a robust test given that there are particular problems such as that rents are significantly higher than the rent assistance being provided.
