Mr. Jim O'Keeffe:
Yes. Previously we worked with a grouping of 24 to 30 houses. I would have to confirm that and revert to the Senator. The number was not of the current scale. It is partly attributable to the fact that we did not have vacant property available at the current scale bearing in mind what we were doing at the time in question. I reinforce the point that we very much welcome the opportunity to work this through now because we see the opportunity to address the social housing need.
