It is clear that any commercial refurbishment that was done required one also to refurbish the living quarters and to live in them. The Minister of State mentioned that such applied to Georgian houses. It also applied to relevant houses, which was classified as pre-1915 houses which were two storey also. My point is anybody who was to avail of this relief up until now had to refurbish a living quarters in his or her premises. Is it the case that there was no commercial element to this that did not allow for the refurbishment of a living area and that had to be occupied?
