This is my final question. What is the total amount that the State has spent on subsidising private accommodation for people with a social housing need? I imagine that would include the housing assistance payment, HAP, the rental accommodation scheme, RAS, and perhaps some leasing. There are two elements to the leasing scheme, lease-to-lease and lease-to-own. What is the total projected spend for 2019 on housing people with a social housing need in the private sector?
