Six hundred and twenty-six were built, then it was an 85% increase and we ended up with 1,200. It shows a bit of spin with the 85%, given the extent of the housing lists and the challenge ahead of us. It gives the impression that we are getting ahead of a crisis. We could do without presenting it in that way because it is not a fair reflection on the extent of the crisis and how that crisis is being tackled. Would Mr. McCarthy accept that?
