The Knocknaheeny regeneration is my area. I am sure our guests are familiar with it. The project will give rise to no net increase in the number of houses because we have knocked everything and are rebuilding those units. These are classed as new builds but we are not getting any additional homes. These are the figures I am trying to get. Of the 2,022, how many are new properties that did not exist previously as part of a regeneration where properties were knocked and rebuilt? How many additional houses did local authorities build?
