I am not having an argument with the Minister about that. This is quite important. My question is purely factual so I can understand the logic of the report. Tallaght Cross contains 65 units that were purchased from a debtor to the National Asset Management Agency NAMA by South Dublin County Council. South Dublin County Council took a decision to use them as emergency accommodation. It is managed by Túath Housing. Families that present as homeless are placed in Tallaght Cross and have a licence agreement. It is emergency accommodation. However, that licence agreement runs for six, nine or 12 months, during which time Túath works with them to place them in housing assistance payment, HAP, accommodation or a council home. I am trying to understand the difference between that arrangement and the one by which Waterford County Council used some council stock to do something similar; or the arrangement by which Louth County Council used private rental stock to do something similar. Can the Minister explain to me the difference as he understands it?
