This is for my benefit. I will always ask a question if I do not know the answer. If I do not know the difference between one and the other, I take it that others also do not. As such, I do not mind asking. The Comptroller and Auditor General stated earlier that the Department is committed to tidying up the register of approved housing bodies prior to the introduction of the statutory regulation. In the five years' work involved in that tidying-up exercise, it will be discovered that the agencies own properties out there. The question arises as to where it is to go. Trusts were set up 30 years ago and people have long since passed away. Where is it registered? I can see it being a far more protracted exercise than-----
