That is okay. On 4 February, Galway had 50 families in private emergency accommodation. This figure is from the city council. I am placing my questions in context. There were 20 notices of termination in quarter 4 of 2018 and the cost of private emergency accommodation in 2018 was €2.455 million, which sum is projected to increase to €3.57 million. The supply of suitable accommodation is diminishing and so on. That is the report in the context of modular homes, which should not have to be built in Galway. That is the context in which I am asking my questions today. While I understand that our guests are implementing Government policy, there is a certain spin to it, albeit those before us have, rightly, rejected that. If we have almost 10,000 homeless people, according to the figure supplied, there is spin going on with all of this social and public housing.
