I can kind of understand, although I do not fully accept, why if people wanted to move in, the Department would say that it is just too expensive and it cannot go to the limits. However, is Ms Faughnan stating that for people who have connections, are from the area, have family there, have kids going to school there and so on, the Department will work with them to not make life difficult in getting stuff that is, as described, way in excess of the cap?
