In the same volume, Mr. Ahern, on page 26 again, there's how the housing policy ended up. It's a report by Maynooth; it'll come up on the screen if ... or I think you have the hard copies: "What the data reveal is a pattern of development that ran counter to what one would have expected or hoped for - those local authorities that had the most vacant stock in 2006, subsequently built the most new housing, now have the highest surpluses of stock and have the most land zoned for future use." So, a gross policy of housing, you know, had all those defects which that report from Maynooth, which is in your volume, show. Could we have targeted it better?
