If you do want to come back at a later date, that is fine. I ask that the Department sends us the information it has and we will have a look at it. My next question is on the tenant purchase scheme. Can local authorities unilaterally, through a valuer, set the value, about which there can be no further discussion or can the tenant get an approved valuer, recognised by the local authority, to provide an alternative valuation? Can negotiations or discussions then take place between the professional valuers? Does the scheme allow for an independent verification of the valuation carried out by the local authority?
