I have a further supplementary question on that aspect. With respect to the so-called holiday homes that have been refused in some cases, part of the problem was that local authorities said there was no demand for homes in such and such a place. There could very well be a demand for them, but the houses might have to be surveyed to see if heating can be installed or changes can be made to them. I appreciate what the Minister has said. That is one suggestion I would make.
