Mr. Paul O'Neill:

We are in the procurement phase of all of the projects. The modelling generally feeds in before the procurement phase is reached. It depends on the tenure mix with which each local authority decides to go. The Deputy is right in what he says about what the affordable element will look like after the procurement stage has been finalised.

The way we help local authorities and structure the competitions in terms of the evaluation we undertake is by making the social or affordable housing costs as keen as possible. Local authorities take various views of the cost of affordable housing being bid for by developers or the prices being set by a local authority. Differing approaches are being taken in that regard.
