The committee was provided with a report detailing the number of people successfully in HAP accommodation. We have tenanted at least 40,000 through the HAP programme and it is working for those people. We are not seeing an abnormal number of people exiting HAP as a result of the tenancy breaking down compared to what is the case in the traditional private rental market. HAP is not having the impacts which some people claim it is. There are individual cases involving people who find themselves in difficulty with which Deputies, as local representatives, must deal, but that does not mean the programme is not working.
