General Scheme of the Affordable Housing Bill 2020: Discussion (Resumed)
Dr. Conor O'Toole:
That is one of the key criteria. That is not necessarily the point I am trying to make. I was trying to say that with schemes such as this there can often be spillover. Households change their preferences for the type of house they would like to buy and that can feed into their loan application and the demand that they would make on a scheme. There are all these combinations. I am not saying that they are the predominant factors affecting the scheme; it is just that these are the balance of the factors that we consider at the outset.
