Yes, I will just throw them in quickly here. Data accuracy is one of the things we talk about a lot. The recently announced Government housing needs assessment figures of 80,000 plus is for June or July of last year. I have subsequent figures from every local authority under FOI of the same net need figures from September and they are 99,000. I would not get too excited that there has been as big a drop as they say.
