Yes, but what is for the Department is the fact that the housing policy is promoting the market and making the market unsustainable because taxpayers' money is going directly into the housing assistance payment - I am directing this to Mr. McCarthy as well - which is called social housing, and directly to the private market, keeping it artificially high. Does that not concern the Department? No? Okay.
