Mr. John McCarthy:

Sorry Chair, there are two different things there. The 25% figure is for all private rental accommodation. There are some 320,000 tenancies, many of which are not supported by HAP or any other scheme. That 25% is of all private rental tenancies. The other target is a statutory requirement that neither I nor anybody else - other than the Oireachtas - can change. That requirement remains. When I was before the committee last I said that the Department was doing a piece of work that we would finish by the end of the year to pull various data systems together that would actually tell us how many are HAP properties. That statutory requirement has not changed.
