We would not need the commercial strength and profitability in the LDA if this fiscal space was not hanging over us, with this on-off balance sheet matter. I would be much happier to support the LDA because then it could go for entirely social and affordable housing whereas this fiscal space and on-off balance sheet matter is bringing commercial viability and profitability back into the equation. Europe needs to look at it.
